Sportsbooks do not expect the Arizona Cardinals to leave Los Angeles with a win Sunday against the Rams.
Arizona (3-6) is a 3-point underdog in its second battle with the Rams (3-5) of the season, one that is expected to look quite different than the first, a 20-12 win for L.A. in Week 3.
Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray (hamstring) and Rams signal caller Matthew Stafford (concussion) are considered unlikely to play, according to multiple reports.
That presents Colt McCoy and John Wolford the chance to pick up their teams.
