It’s the first clash between the two clubs in LA since 1994. The Raiders are 5-2 SU over the Rams in seven games between the two teams played in LA.
Rams Turning to Wolford
Without QB1 Matthew Stafford (concussion), the Rams started third-stringer Bryce Perkins and second-stringer John Wolford the past two weeks. Wofford is going to start this week, even though he’s listed as questionable due to a neck injury. That ailment kept him out two weeks ago, but last week he was 14/26 for 178 yards, 0 TDs and 2 INTs in a loss to Seattle. Wolford made one other start earlier this season, throwing for over 200 yards in a loss to Arizona.

Rams Riddled By Injury
Rams offensive starters QB Stafford, and WR Cooper Kupp and Allen Robinson II are on IR. As well, three-time NFL DPOY DT Aaron Donald (ankle) is out.
For the Raiders, the worry is at RB. Josh Jacobs (quadriceps), Ameer Abdullah (hamstring) and Brandon Bolden (calf) are all questionable.

Last week as 6.5-point home underdogs, the Rams covered in a 27-23 loss to the Seattle Seahawks. The Rams are 5-0 ATS in the past five and 7-1-1 in the last nine games facing the Raiders.
