(WXYZ) — The Detroit Lions take on the San Francisco 49ers on Monday Night Football, but to get the No. 1 seed in the NFC, they'll need some help on Sunday.
Reminder: You can watch the Detroit Lions' Monday Night Football game against the 49ers on Channel 7 with coverage starting at 7:30 p.m.
For the Lions to get the top seed in the NFC, two things need to happen: The Green Bay Packers need to beat the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday, and then the Lions need to beat the 49ers.

That situation would give the Lions the top seed and a bye week in the Wild Card round of the playoffs.
The Lions are 13-2 this season and have locked up a playoff spot.
If both the Vikings and the Lions win, it will come down to the final game of the season to decide the NFC North title and the No. 1 seed in the NFC.
