Get ready for one of the most anticipated divisional battles of the 2025 NFL season! The Kansas City Chiefs (3-3) are set to host the Las Vegas Raiders (2-4) in a classic AFC West showdown this Sunday, October 19, 2025, at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Missouri. Kickoff is scheduled for 10:00AM
The game will be broadcast live on CBS in the United States, while international fans — including those in Vietnam — can catch the action through NFL Game Pass or Fubo. According to Las Vegas oddsmakers, the Chiefs enter as strong favorites, with a -12.5 point spread and a moneyline of -752.
Chiefs Heating Up Behind Mahomes’ Magic
After a shaky start to the season, Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs seem to be finding their groove again. Coming off a dominant win over the Detroit Lions in Week 6, Mahomes posted elite numbers — completing over 70% of his passes with a 113.4 passer rating, and leading Kansas City to an impressive 31.7 points per game average over their last three outings.
The real excitement for Chiefs fans this week is the return of wide receiver Rashee Rice, who is finally back after a six-game suspension and a knee injury. His comeback couldn’t have come at a better time, as he’ll reunite with Hollywood Brown and rookie sensation Xavier Worthy. Together, they form one of the most explosive receiver trios in the league — perfectly suited for Mahomes’ aggressive passing style.
Facing a Raiders defense ranked 29th in points allowed, Mahomes and company are poised for a statement game. Expect 3+ passing touchdowns, with Travis Kelce and Rice serving as key red-zone threats.
Raiders Fighting to Stay Alive
The Las Vegas Raiders enter Week 7 on a mission to keep their season alive. After snapping a four-game losing streak with a hard-fought victory over the Tennessee Titans, the team is looking to build momentum. Quarterback Geno Smith played efficiently last week, going 17-for-23 with 174 yards and 1 touchdown, while rookie running back Ashton Jeanty continued to shine — racking up 424 rushing yards so far, ranking 9th in the entire NFL.
Still, injuries are a concern. Tight end Brock Bowers is listed as doubtful due to an injury, and the Raiders’ cornerback depth remains thin — a dangerous combination when facing Patrick Mahomes at Arrowhead. Historically, the Raiders have struggled against the Chiefs, losing 13 of their last 15 meetings, and they’ll be stepping into one of the loudest stadiums in the world.
Prediction: Chiefs Dominate, Raiders Hang Tough
Everything points toward another Kansas City victory on Sunday. The Chiefs’ offensive rhythm and defensive stability are trending upward, while the Raiders continue to battle inconsistency and injuries. The game may start tight, but expect Kansas City to pull away as Mahomes heats up in the second half.
Predicted Final Score:
Kansas City Chiefs 31 – Las Vegas Raiders 17
Bold Predictions:
-
Mahomes throws 3+ touchdowns
Jeanty rushes for 75+ yards
Chiefs comfortably cover the -12.5 spread
Arrowhead Will Roar Again
