Monday Night Football in the NFL sees an exciting AFC West clash when the Chiefs host the Las Vegas Raiders at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City. The Chiefs are coming off a wild 41-31 win against Tom Brady’s Bucs in week four to push their record to 3-1 and go top of their division. The Raiders, on the other hand, have started the season 1-3 but are coming off their first win after dispatching the Denver Broncos by a score of 32-23 at home. Las Vegas will now look to get one over on their rivals for the first time since 2020 when they infamously beat the Chiefs at Arrowhead and took a reported victory lap around the stadium while honking the horn of their team bus.

Kansas City Chiefs - Las Vegas Raiders: Form Analysis
The Chiefs made a statement last week by putting up 41 points against one of the best defenses in the league in Tampa Bay. Kansas City ranks fourth overall in terms of total offense with 384.8 yards per game and look set to have another big game here against a vulnerable Raiders defense. Patrick Mahomes is having another typical MVP caliber season with 1,106 yards and a league leading 11 passing touchdowns on the year. On the other side, Raiders quarterback Derek Carr was held to a quiet game in the win over the Broncos, passing for only 188 yards and failing to throw a touchdown.

Kansas City Chiefs & Las Vegas Raiders Squad Analysis
Derek Carr has really struggled in his career against the Chiefs and is 1-7 straight up all-time while Mahomes has excelled against AFC opposition and is an incredible 22-3 straight up against them, which also includes a 14-10-1 against the spread record. Additionally, Mahomes is 9-0 straight up when coming off a two game road trip. Both teams are dealing with some injury concerns but linebacker Denzel Perryman’s absence will be a huge miss for a Raiders team already struggling on the defensive side of the ball.
