The Los Angeles Chargers seem to have rebounded after a rough stretch of losing three out of four games, securing consecutive victories against the Minnesota Vikings and Tennessee Titans. They are now aiming for their second three-game winning streak of the 2025 NFL season when they host the Pittsburgh Steelers at SoFi Stadium on Sunday Night Football at 8:20 p.m. ET in Week 10.
Los Angeles, with a 6-3 record, is striving to keep a one-game lead over the AFC West leaders, the Denver Broncos (8-2), and maintain a 1.5-game advantage over the Kansas City Chiefs (5-4), who have secured a bye. However, the challenge will be tough as Pittsburgh (5-3), leading the AFC North, recently defeated the Indianapolis Colts 27-20.
The NBA features seven games, including a matchup between the Boston Celtics (4-6) and Orlando Magic (4-5) at the Kia Center at 6 p.m. ET. The Magic are seeking their second home victory over the Celtics in three days after winning 123-110 on Friday.
In the NHL, there are eight games scheduled, highlighted by the Winnipeg Jets (9-5-0) visiting the Anaheim Ducks (10-3-1) at the Honda Center at 10 p.m. ET. The Jets have lost the first two games of their six-game road trip, while the Ducks have won six straight, including an overtime victory against the Las Vegas Golden Knights on Sunday.
More than 30 college basketball games are set for Sunday, ending with Baylor (1-0) facing Washington (2-0) at Foster Pavilion in Waco, Texas, at 8:30 p.m. ET. Baylor opened their season with a win against Texas Rio Grande Valley, and Washington started with victories over Arkansas-Pine Bluff and Denver.
The Chargers are favored by 2.5 points over the Steelers according to the latest NFL odds. The Magic are 3.5-point favorites against the Celtics, the Jets are -143 favorites against the Ducks, and Baylor is favored by 5.5 points over Washington.

The Chargers look to rebound from last year’s 20-10 loss to Pittsburgh, which limited them to just 61 yards. Quarterback Justin Herbert has shown improvement, passing for 250 yards and two touchdowns recently. Los Angeles ranks sixth in passing yards and fifth in total offense, whereas Pittsburgh ranks last in passing defense and near the bottom in total defense.

Boston has lost three of their last four games while Orlando has won three of four. The Magic gained a solid 13-point victory over the Celtics on Friday, helped by Franz Wagner’s 27 points and strong three-point shooting. The prediction model expects a lower-scoring game and experts believe Orlando will complete a two-game sweep of Boston.

The Jets started their season strong on the road but have struggled recently, scoring only once in their last two games. The Ducks are currently on a six-game winning streak and are tied for the NHL lead with 59 points. Anaheim boasts a high-scoring offense and strong home record, and projections favor them to continue their winning ways.

Washington’s freshman forward Hannes Steinbach has impressed with double-doubles, while Baylor’s guards have also shown strong scoring efforts. Both teams have posted low-scoring games so far, and models expect the trend to continue in this matchup.
Fan Take: For hockey fans, the continued success of the Anaheim Ducks is particularly exciting, as their dominant winning streak signals a potential shift in the NHL power balance. If they can sustain this momentum, it could raise the competition’s intensity and popularity, drawing more fans to the sport.
