49ers? Dallas Cowboys? One of those teams is going to move on to have a chance to play into the Super Bowl. Here’s who the experts think it’ll be.

This one could be the game of the weekend. If you believe the lines, it’s the game that is anticipated to be closest, with the San Francisco 49ers sitting as a three-to-four-point favorite over the Dallas Cowboys with most sportsbooks throughout the week.

NFL.com’s expert picks for Cowboys vs 49ers

Gregg Rosenthal is taking the Niners, 27-21.

"“I’ve believed all season that six teams have a chance to win Super Bowl LVII. All six made the Divisional Round and four of them are playing on Sunday. An upset in this game wouldn’t be shocking, but the 49ers’ coaching staff, playoff experience, rest and home-field advantage is enough for me to lean to the No. 2 seed. The Niners just have more ways to win.”"

Pro Football Talk’s expert picks for Cowboys vs 49ers

Here’s how PFT sees the NFC matchup going:

• Michael David Smith: 49ers by 1
• Mike Florio: 49ers by 7

"“The 49ers have a collection of badasses who can roll out of bed and run through a brick wall. And even though coach Kyle Shanahan has downplayed it, he knows having two extra days makes a world of difference, especially with Cowboys defensive coordinator Dan Quinn interviewing for the Broncos job when he otherwise should be preparing to crack Shanahan’s code, and to not have his own code cracked.” — Mike Florio"
