The Las Vegas Raiders are set to host division rival Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday, Oct. 4, at 4:25 p.m. ET in Allegiant Stadium. Both teams enter the matchup with perfect 3-0 records, making this the first true test of the AFC West this season.
Why the game matters
Under first‑year head coach Klint Kubiak, the Raiders have surprised many by starting the season 3‑0. Veteran quarterback Kirk Cousins leads the league in passing touchdowns with nine, and the offense has shown consistency against opponents such as the New Orleans Saints.
The Chiefs, led by quarterback Patrick Mahomes, also sit at 3‑0 after a 24‑10 win over the Miami Dolphins. Running back Kenneth Walker III tops the league in rushing yards with 360, giving Kansas City a balanced attack that could challenge the Raiders’ high‑scoring air game.

Tickets for the game are currently available through the usual online vendors. Prices start at $324 for general admission. Fans seeking a closer view can purchase lower sideline seats in Section 106 for $431.
