However, this isn’t the case with the NFL and certainly not with this Packers vs 49ers game.This stage serves as preparation for a long and physically demanding season for two high-level teams that will surely give something to talk about throughout the year.

Predictions and Betting Preview for the Green Bay Packers vs San Francisco 49ers NFL Preseason Week 1 Game on August 12, 2022
Where: Levi’s Stadium, Santa Clara, Calif.
When: Friday, August 12, 8:30 PM ET
Betting on the Green Bay Packers
Regular season record: 0-0-0
Handicap: +3
Moneyline: +130
Plus/minus: 32.5
The Green Bay Packers will have to play this season without one of their core players after Davante Adams left for Las Vegas and signed a lucrative contract, leaving a big hole to fill on the team.
Aaron Rodgers will surely miss the wide receiver greatly, as he was one of his favorite offensive weapons and this will make the fight for the NFC North title even more complicated, as the Vikings are expected to face them this season.
Betting on the San Francisco 49ers
Regular season record: 0-0-0
Handicap: -3
Moneyline: -150
Plus/minus: 32.5
The San Francisco 49ers will be hoping to get on track quickly this preseason in order to effectively prepare for the regular season, which will be crucial given that they will be competing in what is expected to be the most competitive division in the NFL: the AFC West.
Three teams from that division made the postseason in 2021, and the same thing is predicted to happen this season. While earning their first division title since 2019 is not out of the question, it will be incredibly difficult, especially if Jimmy Garappolo continues injured.
JefeBet Prediction
Both are very good teams, so picking a winner in what will undoubtedly be an entertaining show is impossible; thus, we expect the match to have more than the total points allotted by the bookmakers.
Prediction: Over 32.5 points
