Los Angeles Rams Form
Los Angeles head to ‘Sin City’ in desperate need of a victory, having dropped back-to-back games to fall to 2-4.
The Rams entered the season as favorites to win the Super Bowl, but made a rough start as they lost 27-7 to division rivals San Francisco in Australia.
They bounced back a week later with a 28-6 victory over the New York Giants, only to then lose 30-26 when they visited Denver.
Los Angeles again responded quickly to a loss, beating Philadelphia 24-20 on the road, but they have not won since.
The Rams have lost back-to-back games at home in recent weeks, following up a 37-34 overtime defeat to Buffalo with an 18-16 loss to division foes Arizona.
Las Vegas Raiders Form
Las Vegas come into this matchup on the back of their third consecutive defeat, which dropped them to 3-3.
The Raiders enjoyed a winning start to the season as they beat Miami 27-13 at home, and they backed that up on the road over the next couple of weeks.
They beat the Los Angeles Chargers 26-14, before heading to New Orleans to down the Saints, 35-27.
Las Vegas’ perfect start was finally ended by a 30-27 defeat to AFC West rivals Kansas City, and they then suffered a 45-17 blowout defeat in New England.
The Raiders’ winless run continued last weekend, as they were beaten 33-30 by Buffalo at home.
Verdict
Las Vegas are in poor form, but aside from one game they have scored consistently this season, and this Rams defense is struggling with key pieces missing.
The Raiders have enough firepower to keep pace with Los Angeles in what could descend into a shootout, so give us the free points.
