The AFC West pulls up to SoFi Stadium on Sunday, September 20, when the Los Angeles Chargers host the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 2. It is a divisional occasion with history attached: the Chargers went 11-6 in 2025-26 while the Raiders finished 3-14, and L.A. won both meetings last season. That pair of results, and the gap in the standings, give this opener a running start on a new year.
Two AFC West rivals arrive from very different 2025-26 seasons – the 11-6 Chargers, winners of both recent head-to-heads, host the 3-14 Raiders.
Head-to-Head
| Date | Result | Venue |
|---|---|---|
| 11/30/2025 | Las Vegas Raiders 14 @ 31 Los Angeles Chargers | SoFi Stadium, Inglewood |
| 09/16/2025 | Los Angeles Chargers 20 @ 9 Las Vegas Raiders | at Las Vegas Raiders |
Season form
Both teams arrive from very different 2025-26 campaigns. The Chargers finished second in the AFC West at 11-6, outscoring opponents 368-340, and closed their last five games L-L-L-W-W, with wins over Dallas and Kansas City. The Raiders went 3-14, their last five running W-L-L-L-L behind a 14-12 win over Kansas City. One side closed the year on a brighter note; the other is looking to turn the page.
Offense vs defense
The statistical gap between the two is visible on both sides of the ball. Los Angeles scored 368 points against 340 allowed, while Las Vegas scored 241 against 432 allowed. On the ground the Chargers gained 2,154 rushing yards at 4.4 yards a carry, compared with 1,317 at 3.6 for the Raiders, and through the air it was 3,728 passing yards to 2,851. The Chargers also got home for 50 sacks to the Raiders’ 37.
Head-to-head history
These divisional rivals met twice during the 2025 season, and both times the Chargers had the last word. In Week 2 Los Angeles won 20-9 in Las Vegas, and in Week 13 the Chargers made it a 31-14 win at home. The recent ledger sits with Los Angeles leading 2-0 over the last two meetings, with both results reflecting the standings gap between the teams.
Last meeting
The most recent meeting, on November 30, 2025, in Week 13, went the Chargers’ way, 31-14, in Los Angeles. Las Vegas has not beaten the Chargers in either of the last two matchups, and the September 20 return fixture at SoFi Stadium offers the Raiders their first chance to change that in a new season.
