Packers to host Buccaneers in NFC Championship Game

The NFC Championship Game is set.

The Green Bay Packers, who beat the Los Angeles Rams on Saturday, will host the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday, January 24 at Lambeau Field.

Tom Brady and the Buccaneers beat the Saints in New Orleans on Sunday.

Kickoff for the NFC Championship Game is scheduled for 2:05 p.m. CT. FOX will broadcast the game.

The Packers lost 38-10 to the Buccaneers in Tampa Bay during Week 6 of the regular season. Green Bay scored the game’s first 10 points but the Bucs got two critical interceptions of Aaron Rodgers and went on a 38-0 run to end the contest.

The Packers haven’t played an NFC Championship Game at Lambeau Field since 2007. Rodgers has previously never started an NFC Championship Game at home.

The team is selling 6,500 tickets to season ticket holders. Additional frontline workers and first responders will also be invited. Last week, the Packers had 8,456 fans at Lambeau Field.

The winner between the Packers and Buccaneers Sunday will face the winner of the AFC Championship Game between the Kansas City Chiefs and Buffalo Bills in Super Bowl LV.
