- The Seahawks are predicted to be a seven-point home favorite against the 49ers.
- San Francisco has lost three games in a row against the Seahawks.
- My Seahawks vs 49ers prediction is the Total Under 46.5 Points (-110).
Seattle will go for a fourth straight win over the 49ers as heavy home favorites in the divisional round.
San Francisco surprised the Eagles with a 24-19 win in the wild-card round. The win ended a four-game ATS failure streak by Brock Purdy despite a pair of interceptions.
Now, the Niners take on the top-seeded Seahawks for the second time in three weeks. In the last meeting, Seattle won 13-3 as 2.5-point road favorites at Levi’s Stadium.

Seahawks vs. 49ers Prediction
Based on San Francisco’s offensive struggles against the Seahawks and Robert Saleh’s semi-trustworthy defense, my Seahawks vs 49ers prediction is Under 46.5 Points (-110).
Hindsight informs us that the Eagles defense was overrated in its matchup with the Niners. I carry significantly more faith in the Seahawks defense (-28.5% in weighted DVOA).
Comparatively, the Eagles posted -13% weighted DVOA rating.
San Francisco averaged 10 points per game against the Seahawks during the regular-season meetings. They’ll also operate without George Kittle, further hampering the offense.
Kittle also missed the Week 18 contest as the Niners staggered to three points. Now, they get a rested Seahawks defense that directly mitigates its offensive strength.
San Francisco ranked second in pass offense DVOA, but faces a unit that led the league. Plus, Seattle has rarely looked bad defensively at home when operating at full strength.
Seattle allowed 37 to the Rams, a historically strong offense by DVOA. While they surrendered 35 to Tampa Bay, Seattle played without both Julian Love and Devon Witherspoon.
At the same time, I remain concerned about Seattle’s offense.
The unit has turned into a run-heavy unit, evidenced by 180 yards against San Francisco in Week 18.
San Francisco, despite overwhelming injury issues, still possesses a corner (Deommodore Lenoir) that can hang with Jaxon Smith-Njigba.
Presumably, Seattle’s defensive strength will further emphasize the run and burn clock. If Seattle is the lone contributor to the total, I question how a high-scoring game materializes.
