• Super Bowl LIV - San Francisco 49ers v Kansas City Chiefs
  • February 2, 11.30pm
  • 331 pre-season, regular season, and play-off games have led to this point. The Super Bowl is here, with a truly scintillating match-up in store as arguably the best offence takes on the best defence as over 150 million fans tune in around the world.

    There aren’t enough superlatives to describe how fast, strong and scary this San Francisco 49ers defence is, but the Kansas City Chiefs boast their own X-Factor, Patrick Mahomes.

    Perhaps the best player in the league, Mahomes could have an MVP & a Super Bowl wrapped up by the age of 25. This is proving to be one of the most interesting Super Bowl’s in recent years, but how will it be won? Here’s what to look out for.

    Running riot

    What sets the Niners apart is their rushing attack, ranked second in the league behind the Baltimore Ravens. The pre-snap motions and misdirection, the willingness from every player to block, and the three-headed dragon of running backs at Kyle Shanahan’s disposal has proved to be nearly unstoppable.
