Kickoff is just minutes away. Check out our prediction of this matchup at the bottom of the article under "related" section.

Aaron Rodgers is sporting a mustache. Not his best look. 

The New York Giants host the Green Bay Packers for their Week 12 matchup on Sunday Night Football with kickoff at 8:25 p.m. ET. Check out our live blog as we bring you play-by-play and scoring updates from this matchup.

The Giants and Packers have the ability to put up points in a hurry as they have two of the best quarterbacks in the league.

It will be Eli Manning versus Aaron Rodgers.

Many thought it would have been Rodgers in the Super Bowl lifting the Lombardi Trophy as Packers were the most dominant football team in the league.

However, the Giants went on an unstoppable run and the Packers had a 2007 déjà vu.

The Packers will come out to get payback tonight. Though the game is not of great importance in relation to a playoff game, but the Packers need this to keep pace with the Chicago Bears who are currently in first place after crushing the Minnesota Vikings 28-10 earlier today.

For the Giants, it would be a chance to gain a two-game lead on the Dallas Cowboys and Washington Redskins who are both tied for second place in the NFC East after their Thanksgiving showdown this past Thursday.

Clay Matthews is out, which is a player less for Manning to worry about on defense.

Do not miss this game and stop by to check out the score.
