Packers vs 49ers, NFC Championship game LIVE: NFL commentary stream and latest updates

Welcome to the Evening Standard's NFL playoff coverage of the San Francisco 49ers vs Green Bay Packers LIVE.

Kyle Shanahan's Niners meet Aaron Rodgers and the Packers in the NFC Championship Game at Levi's Stadium for a place in Super Bowl LIV against the Kansas City Chiefs in Miami, Florida on February 2.

Both of these teams earned first-round byes as the top two seeds in the conference, with the 49ers then brushing aside the Minnesota Vikings on divisional weekend.

Meanwhile, the Packers resisted a strong fightback from Russell Wilson and the Seattle Seahawks to claim a nervy 28-23 win.

Prediction: Packers win

Unlike last year, it has already been a postseason full of shocks and surprises, and we may be in for one last one here.

The 49ers have been impressive all year, though they actually had a marginally better record on the road than at Sunday night's venue, and if Rodgers is on song then he may just be able to deliver the Packers a long overdue Super Bowl appearance.
