We know who Nashville Predators forward Filip Forsberg is rooting for in today's NFC wild-card matchup between the San Francisco 49ers and Philadelphia Eagles.

Prior to the Predators' game against the Washington Capitals, Forsberg arrived at Bridgestone Arena wearing a George Kittle branded jacket and a 49ers hat.

"Here we go," Forsberg said to the camera as he walked in. "Get the back, too."

Forsberg and Kittle have been friends for many years, dating back to a connection between Forsberg's wife, Erin Alvey, and Kittle's wife, Claire Kittle.

The 49ers' star tight end, Kittle has made many appearances at Predators games, including in the Stanley Cup Playoffs. In June, Kittle helped announce the Predators' first round draft selection of Cameron Reid.

The 49ers are playing the Eagles in the NFC Wild Card game. The winner will advance to face the Chicago Bears.
