Here’s how to watch the must-see game between the Green Bay Packers and Chicago Bears in Week 15.

It’s Packers-Bears. In December. With playoff implications.

It doesn’t get much better than that.

A win for the Packers will maintain their advantage in the race for the NFC North while moving them within one win of the division crown. For the Bears, it’s as good as a playoff game. They need to take their winning run to four.

It’s a crucial game for both teams. Here’s how you can watch:

Date: Sunday, Dec. 15
Kickoff time: 12:00 p.m. CT
Location: Green Bay, WI
Stadium: Lambeau Field
TV channel: FOX
Live stream: NFL.com Live Stream, fuboTV

It’s been 14 long weeks since these two teams opened the NFL season. The Packers took the upset victory, by an even more surprising scoreline of 10-3, to silence the Soldier Field crowd and show they were a team ready to compete after two years of playoff-less football.

To Matt Nagy and the Bears’ credit, they’ve bounced back from a slow start. They were written off at 4-6. But much like the Packers three years ago during the famous “run the table” stretch, the Bears haven’t given up. At 7-6, they’re still in the NFC playoff race but will need to match Green Bay’s 2016 run of six straight wins to have a shot.

Expect to see a Bears team with momentum and a sense of urgency arrive at Lambeau Field on Sunday. The Packers will need to put in a stronger performance than we’ve seen in recent weeks. They did enough to get victories over the New York Giants and Washington Redskins, but last week they got stuck in first gear too often, and that won’t be good enough against the Bears.

Win, lose or tie, this is set to be a fascinating game between two old rivals.

Do you think the Packers will complete the season sweep over the Bears?
