The San Francisco 49ers led by Jimmy Garoppolo will face the Los Angeles Chargers led by Justin Herbert in Week 10 matchup.
The San Francisco 49ers will face the Los Angeles Chargers in their Week 10 matchup as Jimmy Garoppolo and Justin Herbert will go against each other. The 49ers are currently 4-4 while the Chargers are 5-3.
Although the Chargers have a better record than the 49ers, this will be a very tough game for them as they are suffering from injuries to key players, and facing a tough team like the 49ers is going to be a big mountain to climb.
On the other hand, the 49ers are getting back healthy and Jimmy Garoppolo will hope to lead his team to a crucial win in their hunt for the playoffs. The 49ers will welcome back star receiver Deebo Samuel in this game and he could play a huge role in this game.

Justin Herbert can solidify his claim as one of the best quarterbacks in the league with a good performance in this game. The Chargers are suffering from multiple injuries, and without key players, Herbert can show the world he is an elite player by performing against a strong team. He has a passer rating of 90.6 with 2,254 yards, 13 touchdowns, and 5 interceptions in 8 games this season.
The San Francisco 49ers are a much healthier team in this matchup and this will give them an advantage over the Chargers who are banged up, and we expect the 49ers to come away with a win.
