Las Vegas Raiders Form

Las Vegas head into this Christmas Day game on the back of their biggest win of the season, which improved them to 6-8.

The Raiders fired Josh McDaniel after a 3-5 start and rallied to .500 following his departure, beating the New York Giants 30-6 and the New York Jets 16-12.

They failed to keep that run going though, as they lost three consecutive games around their bye week.

Las Vegas lost 20-13 at Miami, before returning home to lose 31-17 to Kansas City and 3-0 to Minnesota.

The Raiders’ response to that shutout loss was a stunning one though, as they piled up a season-high 63 points in a 63-21 blowout of the Los Angeles Chargers.

Kansas City Chiefs Form

Kansas City come into this game on the back of a win, but in poor form thanks to three defeats in their five games since the bye week.

The Chiefs went into the bye on the back of a 21-14 win over Miami that sent them into their weekend off with a 7-2 record.

They made a losing return to action as they were beaten 21-17 by Philadelphia in a rematch from last season’s Super Bowl.

Kansas City rebounded with a 31-17 win at Las Vegas, only to then lose 27-19 in Green Bay and 20-17 at home to Buffalo.

The Chiefs did avoid a third consecutive defeat though, beating New England 27-17 last weekend to improve their record to 9-5.

Verdict

Kansas City have underwhelmed this season, but they have dominated the Raiders in recent years.

They won by double digits when the teams met in Vegas a few weeks ago, and we are predicting a similar outcome at Arrowhead.
