The San Francisco 49ers (-3.5) visit the Seattle Seahawks in a crucial NFC West matchup. The 49ers enter on a three-game win streak while the Seahawks have lost six of their last seven games.

The 49ers are surging offensively, scoring 30+ points in three straight games including last week's 34-26 win over Minnesota. Jimmy Garoppolo has been efficient, averaging over 8 yards per pass attempt in his last five starts.

The Seahawks' defense has played well, allowing under 24 points in six straight games. However, their offense has struggled severely, scoring just 28 total points over their last three contests. Coming off a short week after Monday night's 17-15 loss to Washington, Seattle needs more production from Russell Wilson and the offense.

Keys to the Game:

• 49ers must avoid overlooking struggling Seattle with Bengals matchup looming
• Seahawks need explosive plays on offense to keep pace
• Seattle's defense needs another strong performance to give them a chance

The Spread: 49ers -3.5

• San Francisco has momentum and a potent offense
• Seattle struggling to score points despite solid defense
• Short rest for Seahawks after Monday night game

This division rivalry game is critical for both teams - San Francisco looking to strengthen their playoff position while Seattle tries to keep their slim postseason hopes alive.
