Keys to 49ers vs. Seahawks Matchup

Both fanbases will be treated to another heated installment of this rivalry as the two teams are set to face each other for the third time. The Seahawks own the latest matchup 13-3, the 49ers winning 17-13 during their Week 1 tilt. Defense has risen to the forefront when the two teams meet, immediately making for an interesting game total of under 45. It's also the largest betting spread (SEA -7) out of all the divisional games, a serious testament to how much of a toll the win over Philadelphia took on San Francisco. They'll have to move forward without their All-Pro tight end George Kittle after a torn achilles injury, but they showed resilience in the win and have preached a "next man up" mentality all season.

The Seahawks, on the other hand, have been streaking with seven-straight wins to end the season, including a defensive statement against the 49ers in Week 18, allowing only 173 yards of total offense and forcing a turnover. This unit can keep them competitive in any game while their offense will lean on a well-rested Jaxon Smith-Njigba , posting 36 catches for 437 yards in six career games against the 49ers. The connection between him and Darnold early in the game will be crucial to their success and we should see them taking deep shots early.

The good news for San Francisco is that Fred Warner returned to practice, unavailable for this game but potentially able to appear next week if the 49ers advance. They were unable to control the line of scrimmage against the Eagles as Christian McCaffrey was held in-check running the ball. Brock Purdy made a number of clutch throws while the run-after-catch yards for the 49ers put them in great field position. As long as the 49ers are able to slowly march the ball down field, their production inside the red zone (65.22% TD) is second-best (Bills) off all the remaining Playoff teams, so they'll consistently have a chance to put points on the board.

49ers vs. Seahawks Prediction and Pick

This is a very interesting matchup as the Seahawks will be fully rested, but largely inconsistent in covering the spread at home this season. The 49ers will have a tough task ahead of them, but their resilience should be enough to keep this game close throughout.

While we favor the Seattle Seahawks to win this game at home and advance, seven points seems like a wide margin for two teams that know each other so well. This will be Mike Macdonald's Playoffs coaching debut and going up against a veteran mind like Kyle Shanahan will certainly play a huge role in this game. Let's roll with the 49ers to cover the spread as this total falls under.

Final 49ers-Seahawks Divisional Prediction & Pick: San Francisco 49ers +7 (+100); UNDER 45.5 (-115)
