Will the Chiefs win the São Paulo Game?
The NFL is back! And after the opening game in Philadelphia, the second game will be an extremely hot duel. In the truest sense of the word, because the Los Angeles Chargers vs. Kansas City Chiefs game will take place in São Paulo, Brazil.
Bet365 is also pulling out all the stops and offering great odds on both the winner and the touchdown scorer for the Chargers vs. Chiefs game at the start of the season. The betting platform has betting options for both options – especially since this duel has been very clearly in favor of the Chiefs in the past. They have seven wins in a row in the statistics.
So, for Los Angeles vs. Kansas City, our prediction is another win for Patrick Mahomes and Co. They currently have to do without the suspended Rashee Rice, but even without him, they have enough weapons in their arsenal to keep their long-time rivals at bay once again.
Kick-off for the Brazil Game is at 2:00 a.m. on Saturday morning in São Paulo, Brazil. Starting now, Wettbasis will once again be offering numerous NFL tips every week until the Super Bowl in early February. The Eagles and Cowboys will face off on Thursday, and Sunday night will see an exciting duel between the Bills and the Ravens.
Los Angeles Chargers – Kansas City Chiefs Head-to-head comparison / H2H record
The Chiefs have won the last five games. And something else was noticeable. The last three games were low-scoring games with less than 40 points. Twice, the total points did not even reach 30.
This leads us to consider betting on under points in Chargers vs. Chiefs. After all, 45.5 points are set here, which will be difficult for both teams to achieve in this new environment. Speaking of environment, the location in São Paulo naturally takes away the Chargers’ home advantage. Another reason to see the Chiefs ahead here.
In these last three head-to-head matchups, there have also been significantly more field goals than touchdowns. 13 in total, which averages out to 4.3 per game. So for LA Chargers vs. Kansas City, a bet on over 2.5 total field goals is also worth considering.
Los Angeles Chargers – Kansas City Chiefs Tip
Herbert vs. Mahomes is an exciting quarterback duel, but here too we see the magician Mahomes slightly ahead. Especially since the Chargers will be without one of their most important players on the O-line, left tackle Rashawn Slater, for the entire season.
That clearly puts a bet on the Chiefs in focus. We would even consider a Chiefs -3 handicap to be very playable here. After all, they covered that number (including ties) in five of their last seven matchups.
As a player bet, we have a TD bet with high odds on offer: a touchdown by Kareem Hunt. He is likely to be the go-to guy in front of the goal line again this season, which significantly increases his chances of scoring a touchdown. The fact that the odds at Bet365 are still 4.33 means that we see very strong value here.
Beyond that, however, we would refrain from TD bets, as only two touchdowns on average have been scored in the last three games. This, in turn, makes the already recommended under points interesting. We can even imagine that the 40-point mark will not be exceeded in this game.
