The San Francisco 49ers will play host to the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday at the Levi’s Stadium for an NFC divisional playoff game. Both teams won their Wild Card games easily, but oddsmakers expect a closer battle this weekend: they’ve installed the San Francisco 49ers as 3.5-point home favorites in the NFL betting lines. A home victory on Sunday will see the San Francisco 49ers reach the NFC Championship Game for the second time in as many years. At this point, we no longer see the Dallas Cowboys as a long shot. They’re exceeding expectations and a road win here would probably make them a legitimate postseason contender.
