Chicago Bears vs San Francisco 49ers – Predictions

Final Score Prediction: 49ers: 21 | Bears: 17

San Francisco had a pretty decent pre-season, finishing 2-1 with their final game being against the Houston Texans. In stark contrast to Lance, QB Justin Fields enters his second season in the NFL supported by an extremely weak team. The Bears have the worst odds to win the division in the NFC North and are amongst the longest odds in the league to win the Super Bowl.

The 49ers five of the last nine meetings between the two teams and this time should not be any different. Bears are an extremely weak side with no serious threat which should make it a relatively easy opening game in 2022 for the San Francisco 49ers at the Soldier Stadium.

49ers vs Bears Betting Trends
