Last season, the 49ers bounced back from six wins in 2020 to 10-7. The 49ers went on the road and defeated the Dallas Cowboys in the Wild Card round and the Green Bay Packers to advance to the NFC title game. The visiting 49ers lost to the eventual Super Bowl champion Los Angeles Rams.

The Bears regressed with six victories last season after going 8-8 in 2020. The Bears finished third place in the NFC North. At the end of last season, the Bears fired head coach Matt Nagy and general  manager Ryan Pace. Former Indianapolis Colts defensive coordinator Matt Eberflus is the current Bears coach. 

As of Sept. 8, Kittle (groin) is listed as questionable for the 49ers and wide receiver Velus Jones Jr. (hamstring) is questionable for the Bears. 

The 49ers are favored by seven points against the Bears. For the money line, it’s 49ers -300 and Bears +245. The over/under is set for 40.5 points. 

The 49ers will kick off the season by covering the spread and earning a road victory.
