The Buffalo Bills will host the Indianapolis Colts at Bills Stadium during Wild Card weekend on Saturday, Jan. 9 at 1:05 pm on CBS.

Buffalo clinched the No. 2 seed with a 56-26 victory over the Miami Dolphins on Sunday. Indianapolis finished with the No. 7 seed after coming out on the wrong end of a tiebreaker with Tennessee.

It will be the first-ever playoff matchup between the Bills and Colts.

The matchup was finalized on the 28th anniversary of the 1993 Wild Card game between the Bills and the Houston Oilers, when Bills quarterback Frank Reich engineered a 32-point comeback to lead Buffalo to a 41-38 overtime victory. Reich is now the Colts' head coach.

The Bills announced an agreement with New York State to allow 6,772 fans into the Bills Stadium for the wild-card game, which will be the first playoff contest held in Buffalo since 1996. Tickets, which were offered to Season Ticket Members, are sold out.
