The Battle of the Bay is back, and the San Francisco 49ers are looking to pick up right where they left off before their bye week. After starting the season 6-0, the Niners suffered their first loss against Atlanta, but they still sit comfortably atop the NFC West at 6-1. Now Brock Purdy and the 49ers return to Levi's Stadium on Sunday to host the Las Vegas Raiders, renewing a rivalry that dates back to the days when the Silver and Black called Oakland home.
The Raiders enter at 4-4 after snapping a four-game losing streak with a 38-33 victory over the Jets last weekend. Veteran quarterback Kirk Cousins has thrown 19 touchdowns this season, giving Las Vegas an offense that can put up points despite its struggles on defense. San Francisco also welcomes back former first-round pick DeForest Buckner after acquiring the defensive lineman from Indianapolis, adding another weapon to an already impressive defense. With the Niners chasing the NFC's top seed and the Raiders fighting to stay in the playoff picture, Sunday's matchup should be a fun one for Bay Area football fans.
The Niners take on the Raiders at 1:25 p.m. PST on Sunday, and Bay Area fans can catch all the action with Sling TV.

If you're a 49ers fan living outside the Bay Area, Sunday's game may not air on your local FOX station. The matchup has moved into FOX's featured afternoon window, meaning it'll reach more markets than expected, but coverage still isn't guaranteed everywhere, especially with the Patriots vs. Packers game billed as America's Game of the Week. If that's the case, NFL Sunday Ticket through YouTube or YouTube TV is the only way to catch out-of-market Sunday afternoon games and follow the Niners from anywhere in the country.
