The Las Vegas Raiders haven’t been a great fantasy team thus far, but week 5 could prove to be a high-scoring opportunity against the Chiefs.

Similar to the Las Vegas Raiders, a few people may be coming off their first fantasy football win of the season in week 4. And if that is the case, it has been a disappointing start to football on multiple fronts.

However, the season is still young, and there is plenty of time to bounce back.

The Raiders have a huge matchup this Monday night against the Chiefs as they look to regain momentum after getting embarrassed by Kansas City last season. In two games, the Raiders were outscored 89-23, and at times it looked even worse than the score itself.

And if they pull off the upset, they will have to match Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs’ offense that is coming off a 41-point performance.

This will not only be good for the Raiders as they look to unlock this offense fully but will also benefit fantasy owners.

So who are the Raiders that are poised for a big performance on Monday night, and others who you may not want in your lineup

Here is our start and sit recommendations for week 5.
