The Los Angeles Chargers will go against their division rivals, the Denver Broncos in Week 6 as the race to the playoffs continues to get intense in a stacked AFC.

The Broncos are coming into this game having lost two successive games and will need to get a positive result to stay afloat in the AFC West or their playoff aspirations will soon be out of reach.

On the other hand, the LA Chargers are beginning to play well, and Justin Herbert will be determined to get a win over their division rivals to improve their position for the race to the playoffs.

Player to watch out for in Los Angeles Chargers vs Denver Broncos:

  • Russell Wilson – Broncos

Russell Wilson needs to show up in this game. Regardless of the result, he needs to play well for the Broncos as he is under immense pressure and another poor performance will bring more criticism towards him and for the Broncos for bringing him in.

Match Prediction & Telecast Details:

The Los Angeles Chargers will be the firm favorites to get the job done against a struggling Broncos team that is yet to show signs of progress under new quarterback Russell Wilson and new head coach Nathaniel Hackett.
