Featured Game | San Francisco 49ers vs. Seattle Seahawks

Opening line: 49ers -10

San Francisco is a double-digit favorite over the Seahawks as these NFC West rivals are set to open up the postseason on Saturday. Seattle squeaked into the postseason thanks to an overtime win over the Rams in Week 18 coupled with the Lions upsetting the Packers at Lambeau Field on Sunday night. Meanwhile, the Niners are arguably the strongest contender in the NFC, sitting as the No. 2 seed and wrapping up the regular season on a 10-game winning streak. 

San Francisco swept the season series and outscored Seattle, 48-20. The 49ers also ended the season as one of the better bets to make throughout the year, finishing with an 11-6 ATS record. Their 10.2 margin of victory was also the second-highest in the NFL. They come into this matchup on a 5-0 ATS winning streak at home and have also covered their last eight games against the NFC West. Meanwhile, the Seahawks were 7-10 ATS on the season, which included a 1-7 ATS record in their final eight games.
