For the majority of the NFL season, the Los Angeles Rams and Seattle Seahawks were looked at as not only the two best teams in the NFC, but arguably the two best teams in the entire league.

Now, they'll face each other for a third time with a Super Bowl berth on the line.

The Rams won the first meeting between them in Week 11, winning by a score of 21-19. The Seahawks got their revenge in Week 16, winning in overtime on a two-point conversion by a score of 38-37. With just a combined total of three points separating these two teams in the regular season, Sunday night's rubber match promises fireworks.

Let's take a look at the opening odds.

Rams vs. Seahawks NFC Championship Opening Odds

Odds via FanDuel Sportsbook

Spread

  • Rams +2.5 (-102)
  • Seahawks -2.5 (-120)

Moneyline

  • Rams +134
  • Seahawks -158

Total

  • OVER 47.5 (-105)
  • UNDER 47.5 (-115)

The Seahawks are set as 2.5-point home favorites in the NFC Championship, and -158 on the moneyline, which translates to an implied probability of 61.24% of advancing to Super Bowl 60.

The Seahawks enter this game having won eight-straight games. Their most recent loss was to the Rams back in Week 11. Meanwhile, the Rams stumbled into the postseason, going 3-3 in their final six regular-season games with losses to the likes of the Carolina Panthers and Atlanta Falcons. They won their two postseason games, but beat both the Panthers and the Bears by just three points, failing to cover the spread in both of them.

The Rams may not have as much momentum as the Seahawks coming into this game, but they have more experience. The duo of Sean McVay and Matthew Stafford already has a Super Bowl ring on their finger, and now what it takes to win football's biggest games. Is that enough to get past the Seahawks? Stay tuned to find out.

When it comes to the latest Super Bowl odds, Seattle and Los Angeles are the top two teams, with the Seahawks set as the favorite.
