49ers vs Packers Prediction
The current betting odds have the Packers listed as a 1.5 point favorite in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. The Packers have looked really good in their games this season with their 7-3 record overall, but that record only has them in 3rd place of the NFC North and fighting for a Wild Card spot. They are still in the division race, but there are 2 really good teams ahead of them, the Vikings and the Lions, and the Packers have already lost to both this season. They are coming off a tight win on the road against the Bears in their last one, but they will be looking to have a better performance at home after that scare last week. Meanwhile, the 49ers have looked decent in their games this season with their 5-5 record overall which has them right in the NFC West race, but they have been really up and down all season. They lost in the Super Bowl last year and that has really taken a toll on them. They have also been dealing with a lot of injuries to key players this season and they just aren't that same team as last year. They haven't looked great lately as they have been scraping by in a lot of their wins, and now they are coming off a loss at home to the Seahawks last week. The 49ers have a lot of talent on their team, but they haven't been playing like it this season and they are a complete disaster right now from injuries to play on the field. The best way to place a bet here is on the Packers to cover the spread in this game.
49ers Packers Prediction: Our NFL Pick for Sunday, November 24, 2024 (4:25 pm ET start time) is Packers 27 49ers 21.

Notable Quotes
“We gave them a chance. I thought our defense played great all game until that last drive. We let them hang around and when you let people hang around, that’s what happens.” - Kyle Shanahan after his team’s loss against the Seahawks in their last game.
“We knew it was going to be a four-quarter game, four-quarter battle. And I’m proud of the guys. Nobody batted an eye, nobody flinched. It wasn’t by any means our perfect game or our best game.” - Jordan Love after their win against the Bears in their last game.
