TEMPE, Ariz. — Saturday’s Arizona Cardinals-San Francisco 49ers game at State Farm Stadium will be streamed exclusively on Amazon Prime and Twitch both nationally and internationally instead of being broadcast on TV.

The game, which kicks off at 4:30 p.m. ET, will also be televised in each team’s local markets. It will be on KSAZ in Phoenix and on KNTV in the San Francisco Bay Area.

The game will be available to more than 150 million of Prime’s subscribers in more than 240 countries around the world.

Cardinals coach Kliff Kingsbury wasn’t aware the game would be streamed.

“But that’s just kind of the deal these days, apparently,” Kingsbury said. “I don’t really know how it will affect me except fewer people probably getting a chance to check it out.”

Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray didn’t know much about the streaming set up.

If people want to watch it they’re going to have to stream it,” he said. “Other than that, I just know we play on Saturday. I’ll be there and I can’t wait.”

The game will have four sets of broadcasters calling the game, including a scout’s feed and a Spanish language feed.

The NFL chose to stream the game through Amazon Prime and Twitch because of the unique reach of both platforms — allowing the league to expose its product to as many people internationally as possible.

The NFL will take a close look at how many people stream the game and where they’re from, said Kevin LaForce, the NFL’s senior vice president for media strategy and business development, as the league tries to learn about the usage habits of its international fan base.

“The Prime subscriber base is pretty big,” LaForce said. “And, so, the reach situation or the reach consideration for us is still one that’s really important. Broadcast television has served us well and continues to do so, but Amazon is starting to achieve these numbers globally, that hopefully can help us do what we want to do, which is reach fans with our games and develop new fans who grow up loving football.”

By putting the game on Twitch, a service that focuses on live streaming video games, the NFL hopes to tap into a new market.

“There’s different audiences in a lot of ways that may not otherwise be tuning in on Twitch, in particular younger audiences,” LaForce said. “We really are trying to innovate how people consume the game, things like interactivity. They have an X-ray feature that creates some interactive elements, which is really important to us.

Saturday, 4:30 p.m. ET | Amazon Prime

Matchup rating: 66.6 | Spread: ARI -5.0 (48.5)

What to watch for: The Cardinals are averaging seven sacks per game the past two weeks and that number isn’t expected to be lower Saturday against the 49ers — especially with the inexperienced C.J. Beathard behind center. Niners quarterbacks have been sacked 33 times this season. Look for another sack party from the Cardinals, especially from edge rusher Haason Reddick. — Josh Weinfuss

Bold prediction: DeAndre Hopkins finishes with 10-plus catches and 100-plus yards for the second time against the 49ers this season. Hopkins had 14 catches for 151 yards in Week 1, and while those are gaudy numbers, it wouldn’t surprise if Hopkins approached or surpassed them again this time. The Niners have allowed five wideouts to go for 100-plus receiving yards this season and Hopkins adds another to the tally. — Nick Wagoner

Stat to know: Hopkins leads the NFL in receiving yards. No veteran player (i.e. non-rookie) since the 1970 merger has led the NFL in receiving yards in his first season with a team. Hopkins can become the first since Harold Jackson in 1969 for the Eagles.

Playoff/draft picture: The Cardinals clinch a playoff berth with a win and a Bears loss. They haven’t made the playoffs since 2015, when they lost in the NFC Championship Game. The 49ers are eliminated from the playoffs, and they are projected to have the №12 pick, according to FPI, which gives them a 37.9% chance to pick in the top 10.

Injuries: 49ers | Cardinals

What to know for fantasy: Hopkins had two more catches than all of his teammates in the Week 1 meeting with San Francisco, catching 87.5% of his targets in the process (all other Cardinals: 57.1%). See Week 16 rankings.

Betting nugget: Since 2015, Arizona is 9–17 ATS as a home favorite (2–4 ATS since drafting Kyler Murray). Read more.

Wagoner’s pick: Cardinals 27, 49ers 20

Weinfuss’ pick: Cardinals 37, 49ers 24

FPI prediction: ARI, 52.5% (by an average of 0.9 points)

The Arizona Cardinals are on the verge of making the NFC playoffs, needing just a win and a Chicago Bears loss to clinch their first playoff berth in five years. Arizona has the opportunity to put all the pressure on Chicago Saturday, squaring off against the San Francisco 49ers — eliminated from postseason contention a year after capturing the NFC title. The Cardinals have won nine of their last 11 meetings against the 49ers, including their Week 1 thriller that set the tone for the changing of the guard in the NFC West.

The Cardinals are 3.5-point favorites to beat the 49ers, according to William Hill Sportsbook, with the over/under set at 49 points. Both teams are 7–7 against the spread and 5–9 on the over/under this season. Click here to see who are CBS Sports NFL experts picked to win and cover this game and the other Week 16 matchups.

Prediction

Despite concerns over a shoulder injury, Kyler Murray has been getting hot at the right time. Murray has 22 passing touchdowns and six interceptions over his past 10 games, and he’s rushed for 554 yards and seven touchdowns in that span. Murray led DeAndre Hopkins to a season-high 169 receiving yards in a Week 15 win over the Eagles, which will be huge heading into this game. Hopkins has had at least 10 catches and 100 receiving yards in each of his last two meetings against the 49ers, which will be needed against a top-five passing defense.

The 49ers have turned the ball over at least two times in eight straight games, the NFL’s longest active streak. Their 29 turnovers rank second in the NFL, which is less than ideal against a Cardinals defense that has 14 sacks over their last two games — the most they have had in consecutive games in a single season since the final two games of the 1983 season when they had 17 sacks. San Francisco is in the bottom half of the NFL in sacks allowed with 33, which might allow the Cardinals pass rush to feast again.

The Cardinals have everything to play for while the 49ers are just playing out the string. George Kittle’s return will make a difference, but Arizona has enough riding on the line to avoid the upset.

The 49ers vs. Cardinals game will make history on Saturday, Dec. 26.

When San Francisco (5–9) and Arizona (8–6) kick off at 4:30 p.m. ET, it’ll be the first national NFL broadcast to take place exclusively on Amazon Prime Video and Twitch. There will be no traditional television broadcast on a classic channel, but instead a stream-only broadcast. Thanks to free trials discussed below, this game should be available to anyone who wants to watch it, albeit in a slightly different way than usual.

An important note before we get into more details: 49ers vs. Cardinals will be available for local broadcast in the teams’ home markets. In San Francisco, the game can be seen on NBC affiliate KNTV, while in Arizona, it’ll be on local Fox affiliate KSAZ. (In those markets, those channels can also be streamed via fuboTV, which offers a 7-day free trial.)

Below, you’ll find more information about how the rest of the country can enjoy Kyler Murray’s continued rise to superstardom and chase of the NFC’s №7 playoff seed in Week 17.
