The NFL is back with its first-ever game in South America.
On Friday, the Philadelphia Eagles will face the Green Bay Packers at Arena Corinthians in São Paulo, Brazil, which has a capacity of about 50,000.
More from Deadline
The Eagles are coming off a disappointing season, but will seek to bounce back under rejuvenated quarterback Jalen Hurts and new backfield threat Saquon Barkley. The Packers will try and counter with rising quarterback Jordan Love.
Coincidentally, Arena Corinthians uses the exact type of playing surface (Desso Grassmaster) that the Eagles and Packers do at The Linc and Lambeau, so both teams will feel right at home. The temperature is expected to be a near-perfect 65 degrees at kickoff.
The game starts at 5:15 p.m. PT (which is 9:15 p.m. São Paulo time, for those keeping track).
The game will be streamed exclusively on Peacock.
