The Baltimore Ravens and Pittsburgh Steelers will square off for the AFC North title and No. 4 seed in the AFC in Week 18 on Sunday Night Football.

Pittsburgh enters the contest with an 8-8 record, while Baltimore is 7-9. This will be the 40th meeting between Mike Tomlin and John Harbaugh.

Though Baltimore and Pittsburgh don't play until later on Sunday, we already know who the winner will play in Round 1 of the playoffs.

Who will Ravens or Steelers play in first round of playoffs?

The Houston Texans secured the No. 5 seed in the AFC with their victory over the Indianapolis Colts in Week 18.

So that means the winner of the AFC North between the Ravens and Steelers will host the Texans in the wild-card round.

Houston finished the regular season with a 12-5 record, but didn't win their division, as the 13-4 Jacksonville Jaguars took home that honor.

However, the Texans are a dangerous opponent and will give the AFC North champion a tough battle in Round 1.
