Event of the Day: Kansas City Chiefs v Washington Redskins

Our event of the day...

is the NFL clash between the Washington Redskins and the Kansas City Chiefs at Arrowhead Stadium. The Chiefs have made an excellent start to the season winning all three of their opening fixtures, including a 24-10 win against the Los Angeles Chargers at the StubHub Center last time out. The Redskins ran out 27-10 winners against Oakland Raiders in their last game at FedExField. Both teams will look to build on wins from last week in a thrilling tie this evening.

The Chiefs have been very eye-catching in their opening three fixtures, justifying their offense being ranked third best in the league rankings this year and their rushing ranked first. Kareem Hunt set an impressive record last week as he became the first player in NFL history to score a touchdown of 50 yards or longer in each of his first three games. However they may just find it harder against the fifth best-ranked defense of the league in the Redskins. With both sides capable of producing blistering plays in offense and defense, tonight’s NFL action promises to be quite a spectacle.
