Time, TV -- 8, NFL Network
Line -- Seahawks by 9 1/2
Last meeting -- 49ers won, 20-14, at San Francisco on Nov. 19, 2006.
Key stat -- The Seahawks are 5-1 at home, losing only to the Vikings.
The buzz -- The Seahawks' Matt Hasselbeck missed the teams' first meeting, and it was RB Shaun Alexander's first game back from injury. The Seahawks are still fighting injuries and will go without WR Darrell Jackson (toe), but they have enough to wrap up their third straight NFC West title.
