The Arizona Cardinals and San Francisco 49ers will both travel to Mexico City in what is a pivotal matchup for the NFC West.
If the Cardinals can win, they’ll be a game back from .500 and have a much more realistic shot of making the postseason as a wild card team. If the 49ers win, they’ll tie the Seahawks in wins and get closer to first place.
The 49ers lead the all-time series 32-29, so the Cardinals will not be able to take the lead in this season even if they pull off another sweep.
Last season, the Cardinals swept the 49ers, a rival they’ve had a great deal of success against. The team is 12-4 in their last 16 games played, so the recent matchups have very much gone in favor of the Cardinals.
With that in mind, how have the Cardinals done against the 49ers in recent memory? Analyzing trends is always key when looking at an upcoming matchup.
