Kansas City Chiefs at San Francisco 49ers prediction
The 49ers have been inconsistent this season, going 2-2 in their last four games, with wins over the New England Patriots and Seahawks and losses to the Arizona Cardinals and Los Angeles Rams.
Of course, this is a Super Bowl rematch, but the teams are both a fair bit different, especially Kansas City.
Kansas City is without wide receiver Rashee Rice and running back Isiah Pacheco as they look to re-tool this wide receiver room.
They’re 5-0 this season despite a turnover differential of -4, the same as the Jacksonville Jaguars and Carolina Panthers, two one-win teams.
The 49ers have a turnover differential of +3.
The 49ers have one of the best offences in the league, averaging 420 yards per game (second).
Meanwhile, Kansas City allow just 305.4 yards per game (ninth).
Still, Kansas City are 5-0 and keep finding ways to win.
Kansas City Chiefs at San Francisco 49ers betting tips
Kansas City -4 turnover differential will catch up with them if this trend continues, but getting a point with them on the road is something I simply cannot pass up.
The 49ers offence has been excellent this season, but Kansas City are holding teams to less than 90 rushing yards per game.
I think Kansas City continue to find ways to win and go to 6-0 here despite the tough matchup.
They’re coming off a bye and face the team they beat in the Super Bowl.
Expect some unique and creative plays from head coach Andy Reid.
Take Kansas City +1.
