Right now in the AFC West standings, the Chiefs are in the top spot with the Chargers one game back. Since the Chargers already beat the Chiefs 30-24 back in September, if the Chargers win Thursday night’s matchup, they would have the inside track for the top spot in the division.

The Chiefs, however, are on a hot streak and have won six consecutive games after starting the season 3-4. The Chargers are on a two-game winning streak, and they hope to continue that by beating one of their rivals.

The primetime game is expected to be close, as the Chiefs opened as three-point favorites, according to DraftKings Sportsbook.
