Los Angeles Chargers at Kansas City Chiefs Preview & Picks

Los Angeles are tipped to cover as a betting underdog at Arrowhead.

The Chargers are the team in better form, despite the recent embarrassment in Jacksonville, and this feels like a lot of points for a Chiefs team that has massively underwhelmed this year.

  • Los Angeles Chargers are 5-1 in their last 6 games
  • Kansas City Chiefs are 1-4 in their previous 5 games
  • Kansas City Chiefs are 0-5-0 ATS in their last 5 games
  • The Under has cashed in 3 of the previous 4 meetings

Head To Head

  • Kansas City Chiefs lead the all-time series 71-59-1
  • Los Angeles Chargers won 27-21 when the two teams last met on September 5

Los Angeles Chargers Form

Los Angeles enter this big AFC West clash having won five of their previous five six games to improve to 9-4.

The Chargers opened the season with three consecutive division wins, beating Kansas City 27-21, Las Vegas 20-9 and Denver 23-20.

They cooled off over the next few weeks though as they lost 21-18 at the New York Giants and 27-10 to Washington, before failing to build on a 29-27 win at Miami as they lost 38-24 to Indianapolis.

Los Angeles sparked their turn around in late October though, as they downed Minnesota 37-10, and they backed that up by winning 27-20 in Tennessee and 25-10 at home to Pittsburgh.

The Chargers failed to make it four-in-a-row as they lost 35-6 in Jacksonville, but they have put that behind them with home wins over Las Vegas, 31-14, and Philadelphia, 22-19 in overtime.

Kansas City Chiefs Form

Kansas City go into this home game on their worst run for several years, having now lost four of their last five games to slip to 6-7.

The Chiefs dropped their first two games of the season, and then failed to build on back-to-back wins as a 31-28 defeat at Jacksonville left them under .500 in early October.

They appeared to kick-start their campaign a week later when they took down Detroit, 30-17, and they backed that up with further home wins over Las Vegas, 31-0, and Washington, 28-7.

Kansas City failed to keep that good run going though, as they went out on the road to lose 28-21 in Buffalo and 22-19 at Denver.

The Chiefs then returned home to beat Indianapolis 23-20 in overtime, only to return to losing ways immediately as they fell 31-28 at Dallas and 20-10 at home to Houston.

Verdict

This may be tempting fate, but it does feel like the Kansas City dynasty is over.

The Chiefs are in miserable form and just lost at home, so the in-form Chargers with free points is our pick for this critical AFC West clash.
