On Sunday afternoon, the Kansas City Chiefs will host the Baltimore Ravens in a Week 4 matchup on GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium. Kickoff is scheduled for 3:25 p.m. Arrowhead Time on CBS — locally on KCTV/5. With only a contest between the Chicago Bears and Las Vegas Raiders rounding out the 3:25 slate, expect the Ravens-Chiefs game to be available for the majority of the country.

According to FanDuel Sportsbook, Baltimore has opened as a 2.5-point favorite in the game.

These teams last met to open the 2024 season, with the Chiefs hosting the Ravens as defending champions after winning Super Bowl LVIII. The Chiefs opened as three-point favorites in the matchup. Kansas City covered the three-point spread with a 27-20 victory, but the action came down to the final play. Had Ravens tight end Isaiah Likely worn cleats a half shoe size smaller, he would have scored a touchdown on the game’s final play. While the Ravens were lining up for a two-point conversion to avoid overtime, it was ruled that Likely’s toe narrowly edged out of bounds in the back of the end zone.

Unexpectedly, this contest between two of the AFC’s best franchises over the last few seasons has both teams at 1-2. Through three weeks of the regular season, the Chiefs have taken tough losses to the Los Angeles Chargers and Philadelphia Eagles, while comfortably beating the New York Giants in a sloppy affair. The Ravens suffered a defeat to the Buffalo Bills in Week 1 on a last-second field goal before dominating the Cleveland Browns in Week 2. They concluded Week 3 by falling to the Detroit Lions 38-30 on “Monday Night Football.”
