The Arizona Cardinals and Los Angeles Rams face off this Sunday afternoon at State Farm Stadium. Both teams are seeking their first win in the division. The Rams are hoping to stay above .500 and the Cardinals hope to break three four-game losing streaks — they have lost four in a row on the season, four in a row to the Rams and four in a row at home to the Rams.

However, the Cardinals have had a lead late in the fourth quarter in each of the last two games and gave up the winning score.

Will things be different this week?

Rams Wire managing editor Cameron DaSilva and I give our picks and predictions for the game. Here is how we think things will go down in Glendale.

Rams Wire: Rams 24, Cardinals 21

I think the Rams are going to win this one, though I’m not overly confident in that pick after watching their offense the last three weeks. But I think the defense will do enough to slow down Arizona’s offense, and Goff should be able to avoid costly turnovers enough to keep the Rams in the game. I’ll say they win 24-21, but it’ll be close throughout.

Cards Wire: Cardinals 31, Rams 28

I think the game is close. The Cardinals, though, will take advantage of the extra rest and time to prepare, as well as the short week for the Rams. The Cardinals will continue to score points and will give up points, but this time they get the one stop they need. They pull off the win at home 31-28.

Who will be right? Find out on Sunday!
