The 95th NFL season is underway this afternoon with the defending champion Seattle Seahawks hosting the Green Bay Packers.

Seattle claimed a maiden Superbowl title at the start of the year by thrashing Denver and a talk of repeating the feat this season has already begun.

Unlike many previous Super Bowl winners, the Seahawks have managed to avoid losing a list of key players to free agency in the off season.

The Seahawks are widely favoured to become the first side in 10 years to win back-to-back Superbowls

Today's match is underway from 12:30.
