The LA Chargers look like a solid underdog when visiting Kansas City Chiefs in a matchup between the two teams with the best records in the AFC.

KC has failed to cover the spread in four straight games and needed overtime to get past Baltimore last Sunday. The Chiefs gave up 132 yards on the ground and could be in big trouble here if Chargers RB Melvin Gordon takes the field after missing two games with a sprained right knee.

"I've been grinding hard to get back and we're still trying to decide what we're going to do," Gordon said Tuesday (via ESPN.com). "I know Coach is trying to be careful and doesn't want me to further hurt myself or things like that. So we'll see where that goes, but I'm a lot stronger and more confident than I was last week."

Note that KC is banged up as well; wide receiver Tyreek Hill (foot) and running back Spencer Ware (shoulder/hamstring) are both in danger of missing the game.

The Chargers have won three in a row and they're a solid 5-1 SU and ATS on the road this season. They're likely to be extra fired up here seeking revenge for a 38-28 home loss to the Chiefs back in September.

10* play on LA Chargers.
