NEW YORK - The New York Giants will travel to play the Minnesota Vikings this weekend in the Wild Card Playoffs at U.S. Bank Stadium.
The Vikings finished the regular season 13-4 after beating the Chicago Bears on Sunday and are the No. 3 seed for the NFC Playoffs. The Giants were already locked into the No. 6 seed before the weekend.
The Giants rested their key starters in Philadelphia and lost to the Eagles 22-16. They finished the regular season 9-7-1.
Sunday will mark the second time this season the Vikings will play the Giants. Back on Christmas Eve, the Vikings needed a franchise-record and career-long 61-yard field goal from Greg Joseph as time expired for a 27-24 win over the Giants.
The Giants, winners of four Super Bowls, are in the playoffs for the first time since 2016.
The Giants overcame injuries and a 2-4-1 slide in November and early December to become the third NFC East team to qualify for the postseason, joining Philadelphia and Dallas.
The Vikings and Giants have a previous playoff history. The Giants beat the Vikings in the 2000 NFC Championship Game at Giants Stadium in the Meadowlands.
What time does the Giants-Vikings game start?
The game takes place Sunday, Jan. 15, 2023. Kickoff is scheduled for 4:30 p.m. EST at U.S. Banks Stadium in Minneapolis. The pre-game coverage will begin at 4 p.m. EST.
