The 49ers and Seahawks face each other on Sunday, October 11, with kickoff at 4:25 PM ET/9:25 PM BST from Lumen Field in Seattle. The game will be broadcast on Fox in the United States and can also be streamed on Fox One or Fubo if local affiliates carry it; in Canada, DAZN and Fubo offer streaming options, while Sky Sports NFL and NOW provide UK viewers with broadcasting and streaming alternatives. Jaxon Smith-Njigba's performance is crucial for Seattle, who are tied for sixth in the NFC with 105 points scored over four games. The 49ers, meanwhile, boast a balanced offense led by Brock Purdy and key players like Trent Williams, Christian McCaffrey, Mike Evans, George Kittle, and Deebo Samuel, while their defense ranks third in yards allowed per play despite injuries to star edge rusher Nick Bosa and tackle James Thompson.

Story summary
The San Francisco 49ers are set to travel and face the Seattle Seahawks in a highly anticipated NFL game on Sunday. This will be their first meeting since last season's playoff loss, where injuries sidelined key players like George Kittle and Fred Warner for the 49ers. Now healthy and bolstered by offseason acquisitions including Mike Evans and Deebo Samuel, the 49ers aim to exact revenge against a Seahawks team that currently holds a 3-1 record. The rivalry is intense as both teams compete for dominance in the NFC West; San Francisco enters with an undefeated 4-0 record. This rematch will not only settle unfinished business but also influence standings heading into the season's midpoint, given the competitive nature of their division.
