This year’s upcoming Super Bowl will be held on February 9, 2025. It is to be at the Caesars Superdome in New Orleans, Louisiana. Here is what to expect if you have not been following this season:
This year, the Super Bowl will be between the Philadelphia Eagles and the Kansas City Chiefs. This is going to be the second time that these two teams meet in the Super Bowl and the first time that both of them have played at the Caesars Superdome since its opening in 1975. The last time they met was in 2023, during Super Bowl LVII. The Kansas City Chiefs won the game against the Philadelphia Eagles with a final score of 38-35. Many fans are excited about this rematch and are excited to see these two teams play each other in the final game again.
In the past, the Kansas City Chiefs have won the past two Super Bowls against the San Francisco 49ers in 2024 and 2020, as well as against the Philadelphia Eagles in 2023, and the Minnesota Vikings in 1970. The Philadelphia Eagles have won one Super Bowl in 2018 against the New England Patriots, making this a very important game for both teams.
This season, the Philadelphia Eagles had a record of 14 wins and 3 losses, and the Kansas City Chiefs had a season record of 15 wins and 2 losses, the Chiefs having the highest record and the Eagles having the second-highest record in their respective divisions, with the Eagles being in the National Football Conference and the Chiefs being in the American Football Conference. This is a very equal pairing and it is projected to be a very close game. Whoever wins this game will be given the last pick in the 2025 draft, as to give other teams more advantages to get better players for a better chance at the Super Bowl in the future.
At the Super Bowl, Kendrick Lamar is performing the halftime show with a guest performance from SZA and potential other performers, it is unclear if there will be anyone else performing with him and if they will be announced or be kept as a surprise.
Hopefully, you can tune into the upcoming Super Bowl LIX with a bit more background knowledge on these two teams, enjoy!
