Reigning NFL champions Kansas City head to the AFC's number one seed Baltimore on Sunday for a mouthwatering Conference Championship game.
Both sides possess star quarterbacks and mean defences, but only one side can march on to Las Vegas and Super Bowl LVIII on February 11th.
- Kansas City Chiefs to win
- Travis Kelce anytime touchdown scorer
- Lamar Jackson anytime touchdown scorer
Chiefs’ Experience Could Be Decisive
Many teams have been daunted by the trip to M&T Bank Stadium this season – but don’t expect the Chiefs to be overawed by the challenge facing them on Sunday.
This Kansas City side know what it takes to not only reach the Super Bowl but also go on to win it, as they did against the Philadelphia Eagles last season.
The Chiefs showed what they could do on the road against the Buffalo Bills last time out, when star quarterback Patrick Mahomes won his battle with opposite number Josh Allen.
Doing the same to Ravens QB Lamar Jackson will be a different proposition and Jackson will inevitably cause the Chiefs’ defence problems at times.
However, the Kansas City offensive line has been in pretty good shape and should give two-time Super Bowl winner Mahomes the time he needs to make the most of the weapons available to him.
It’s likely to be tight but the Chiefs have the quality and the experience to book their ticket to Super Bowl LVIII.
Kelce Rediscovers Swagger
Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce struggled for form towards the end of the NFL regular season, but the two-time Super Bowl winner showed his class when it mattered against Buffalo last week.
With five receptions during the game, Kelce recorded 75 yards and, more importantly, two touchdowns in Kansas City's 27-24 win at Highmark Stadium.
Kelce appears to have the bit between his teeth again and Mahomes knows he can trust his experienced team-mate to deliver when it matters.
It would be little surprise to see Kelce add to his seven touchdowns for the season in Maryland.

Jackson A Threat From Close Range
It has been a pleasure to see Baltimore quarterback Jackson return to his standing as one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL this season.
Jackson now has the supporting cast at the Ravens, too, but perhaps this season might just be too soon for an up-and-coming Baltimore outfit to claim the league's ultimate prize.
The Ravens QB was outstanding against the Houston Texans last week, when he registered two touchdown passes and crossed for two rushing touchdowns.
Jackson is a real threat in the red zone and he can find pockets of space to go over from close range.
It might not be enough to overcome the Chiefs this weekend but consider Jackson in the anytime touchdown market.
