What better way to launch the 2025 NFL season than with an AFC West divisional matchup between the Kansas City Chiefs and Los Angeles Chargers that'll be played in São Paulo, Brazil? The game, played on Friday, Sept. 5 at 8/7c, will be one of seven played overseas this season, with other international locations including London, Dublin, Berlin, and Madrid. Not only do these contests bring an American sport to a worldwide audience, but they also shake up the NFL schedule, allowing games to be played in neutral (albeit exciting) territories. So without further ado, here's everything you need to know about how to watch the Kansas City Chiefs vs Los Angeles Charges game in São Paulo. 

The game will find the Chiefs entering another historic season. The 2024 AFC champs seek another Super Bowl victory, intent on etching their names among the all-time greats after falling to the Philadelphia Eagles in the big game last year. It's the last year on Travis Kelce's (soon to be Mr. Taylor Swift) contract, perhaps signaling the end of his successful 13-season career. How picture perfect would it be if Kelce could wrap up his time in the NFL with both a diamond ring and a Lombardi Trophy?

Meanwhile, the Chargers are coming off an 11-6 2024 season that saw them fall in the wild card playoffs to the Houston Texans. It was a tremendous improvement from their 2023 performance, in which they managed only 5 wins. Can this squad — filled to the brim with talent like Omarion Hampton, Ladd McConkey, and Justin Herbert — continue its upward trajectory and make a deeper run in the postseason? A week one upset against the Chiefs, who have won three straight AFC titles, would be a remarkable way to start.

Football fans will have the pleasure of discovering the answers to all these questions during a game played at the Arena Corinthians, the home of the Brazilian soccer team SC Corinthians, an official venue for the 2016 Olympic Games, and the site of the NFL's first-ever regular season game played in South America. According to the NFL, Brazil has the second-largest international fanbase behind Mexico. This game is poised to become a one-of-a-kind experience for both Brazilian fans and football lovers at home in the states.
