The Oakland Raiders are ready to take on the Minnesota Vikings who lost a close game in Green Bay, Wisconsin, 21-16. Both teams are looking for a win after tough losses.

The Oakland Raiders look to exploit some of the weaknesses the Vikings have in Week 3. Both teams head into Week 3 sitting at 1-1, so expect some fireworks inside US Bank Stadium.

For the Raiders, they are coming off a tough loss against division rival Kansas City, where the Chiefs really only dominated in the second quarter. The Chiefs got a historic performance from 2018 NFL Most Valuable Player Patrick Mahomes, who tossed four touchdowns in the second, which was all the team needed to win 28-10.

Minnesota is also fresh off a loss to a division rival, though they went on the road and were beaten by the Green Bay Packers.

Here are three things to look for in the game on Sunday.
