Kansas City hosts Philadelphia on Sunday (4:25 p.m. ET, Fox), marking the 11th Super Bowl rematch to take place in the following season, according to ESPN Research. It's also the third consecutive season that has featured a rematch involving the Chiefs."
"Sunday will be the fifth time in the past five seasons that the Chiefs and Eagles will meet. According to Elias, this is the first time since the 1970 merger that teams from different conferences will play five times in a five-season span, including Super Bowls. Kansas City is looking to avoid its first 0-2 start since 2014, with history on Philadelphia's side. Defending champions are 7-3 in Super Bowl rematches that took place in the following regular season."
