49ers to host Seahawks during Wild Card Weekend on Saturday, January 14

The NFL announced the schedule for Wild Card Weekend, and the San Francisco 49ers will host the Seattle Seahawks on Saturday, January 14, with kickoff scheduled for 1:30 p.m. PT. It will be the second time the 49ers have met the Seahawks in the playoffs, with the other being the 2013 NFC Championship Game, a 23-17 loss.

San Francisco swept the Seahawks during the regular season on the way to the NFC West title. The upcoming playoff game will be the 50th meeting all-time between the two teams.

The 49ers finished the regular season with a 13-4 record and the No. 2 seed in the NFC playoffs after their 38-13 rout of the Arizona Cardinals at Levi’s Stadium. San Francisco couldn’t secure the No. 1 seed because the Philadelphia Eagles beat the New York Giants.

This is San Francisco’s third playoff appearance in the past four seasons. The team made it one game short of another Super Bowl appearance last season, losing 20-17 to the Los Angeles Rams in the NFC Championship Game.
