For the first time since 2013, the 49ers will be hosting an NFL playoff game, as the Minnesota Vikings roll into Levi’s Stadium on Saturday.
Coming off a controversial overtime win over the New Orleans Saints, the Vikings come in with a lot of confidence and a quarterback that 49ers coach Kyle Shanahan is quite familiar with in Kirk Cousins.
Both teams enter Saturday’s divisional-round matchup with key players getting healthy at the right time. Vikings running back Dalvin Cook sat out the final two weeks of the regular season while battling chest and shoulder injuries, and is coming off a 94-yard, two-touchdown performance in Minnesota’s upset victory in New Orleans.
