The Dallas Cowboys and San Francisco 49ers rekindle their NFC rivalry in the Wild Card Round in Arlington, Texas on Sunday afternoon.
The Niners snuck into the postseason with a thrilling come-from-behind win over the L.A. Rams in Week 18 and enter the NFL Playoffs as one of the hottest teams in the NFL, having won seven of their last nine contests. Despite that momentum, San Francisco is a field goal underdog to Dallas, which earned the No. 4 seed in the conference thanks to a soft home stretch.
Here are our free NFL picks and predictions for 49ers at Cowboys on January 16.

Coming out of the bye and getting some key players healthy, the Seattle Seahawks head to Cincinnati this Sunday to prove that the Bengals are past their early-season struggles. The NFL odds favor the Bengals at -3 with the total in the potential windy and wet meeting sitting at 45.

The final game of the 2023-24 NFL regular season could also be the best as the 10-6 Buffalo Bills face off against the 11-5 Miami Dolphins at Hard Rock Stadium. Miami has already clinched a playoff berth – its second in two seasons – but Buffalo’s postseason hopes are still hanging by a thread. A Bills loss on Sunday combined with wins by the Pittsburgh Steelers and Jacksonville Jaguars and any result other than a tie between the Houston Texans and Indianapolis Colts would bring a swift end to Buffalo’s season.
While there are a number of different subscription-based TV channels and streaming services available to watch this game, you can also live stream Bills vs. Dolphins directly from legal sports betting sites.

“This year we have to drink all the beer,” Joshua Kimmich says, his tone deadpan as he ponders how weird it would be for Bayern Munich not to have their traditional beer-throwing celebration in front of their supporters if they win the Bundesliga this season. “I cannot imagine it now. I just know that it is strange if you win a game at the Allianz Arena and cannot celebrate with your fans. But we don’t have the choice now.”
Bayern’s outstanding midfielder can be forgiven for his confidence. The German champions were motoring before the coronavirus pandemic brought football to a halt in March and they have effortlessly picked up the pace since the Bundesliga season resumed last month, gliding seven points clear of Borussia Dortmun…

Italian football has been rocked by the news that inspirational captain Fabio Cannavaro will not be able to play in the European Championships.
Cannavaro collided with teammate Giorgio Chiellini in training and landed awkwardly on his ankle, causing substantial damage to his ligaments and ruling him out of the tournament.
Italy have called up Fiorentina s Alessandro Gamberini as a replacement and they have cover in the squad with Andrea Barzagli and Marco Materazzi, while Chiellini and Christian Panucci can play at centre back rather than full back.
Despite the adequate replacements they have and the fact that legendary goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon is likely to take over as captain, the loss of Cannavaro cannot be underestimated.

Luka Modric has ended Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi s 10-year domination of the Ballon d Or by claiming world football s most coveted individual prize.
Modric helped Real Madrid to their third consecutive Champions League trophy before the midfield maestro played a pivotal role in Croatia s surprise run to the World Cup final.
Ronaldo finished second, unable to add a sixth trophy to his collection, while France and Atletico Madrid s Antoine Griezmann completed a Messi-less top three.
Here, we look at how the jury voted to rank the players selected as the 30 best on the planet by France Football.

Cristiano Ronaldo has celebrated winning yet another award for his achievements in 2016.
The 31-year-old claimed the Ballon d Or and the inaugural The Best FIFA Men s Player award after winning the Champions League, the UEFA Super Cup and the Club World Cup with Real Madrid and Euro 2016 with Portugal.
Ronaldo has now been named MVP for last year by Dongqiudi, a Chinese website backed by the Suning Group, which owns Inter.
The former Manchester United star, who became the first footballer to be named European Sportsperson of the year by PAP, thanked supporters who voted for him for the Dongqiudi prize.
Thanks for the support of Chinese fans, he wrote on his official Instagram page along with a photograph of him holding the trophy.
