The San Francisco 49ers and Green Bay Packers will meet Sunday at Levi’s Stadium in the NFC Championship Game.
The top-seeded Niners thrashed the Packers in their regular-season meeting, 37-8, stifling Green Bay and limiting Aaron Rodgers to 104 yards passing.
Vegas likes San Francisco to win again, but the spread might not be as large as you think:
Packers getting 7 at 49ers next week.
