The NFC West rivals do not have the start they expected of the new season. The Niners are having many personal issues and those took a tool on their record. The Cardinals are still in a rebuilding process but winning only one game in four weeks is not a record they can be happy with.
The San Francisco 49ers and the Arizona Cardinals meet on 06.10.2024, with both teams hoping for a push. The game takes place at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California on Sunday afternoon.

San Francisco 49ers vs. Arizona Cardinals: Initial situation

Betting tip and prediction: San Francisco 49ers – Arizona Cardinals (06.10.2024)
The San Francisco 49ers came into the season as one of the main favorites to win it all but have a tough start mainly because of the injuries. The list is pretty long going into Sunday’s game against the Arizona Cardinals with running back Christian McCaffrey, wide receiver Jacob Cowing and linebacker Fred Warner being ruled out for the upcoming game. That certainly put the Niners in a difficult situation against a team they beat the last four times they played. The Cardinals are still among the worst teams in the league. They lost both of the games against the Niners by at least 17 points last season and is pretty unlikely they will stand a decent chance in this one. Brock Purdy continued where he ended last season and now even the loudest doubters have to admit that he is one of the best quarterbacks in the game. He has the skillset to get the best out of his teammates and with Purdy leading the way, the Niners will cover the -7.5-point spread.
