Seattle Seahawks vs Kansas City Chiefs Prediction 26 October 2026
🔥 The Seattle Seahawks and Kansas City Chiefs square off in Week 7 of the NFL regular season at Lumen Field. The hosts come into the matchup with a 3-3 record, while the visitors remain unbeaten through five games. Adding extra intrigue is the return of running back Kenneth Walker to Seattle, where he played a key role in last season’s Super Bowl triumph. Despite Kansas City’s stronger start, bookmakers slightly favor the Seahawks at home. This clash promises to be a major test for Seattle’s defense, who will have to contain one of the league’s most potent rushing offenses.
Head-to-head statistics Seattle Seahawks - Kansas City Chiefs

Seattle Seahawks Team Overview
The Seattle Seahawks have claimed three wins from their six regular season games, but head into their matchup with Kansas City on the back of two consecutive defeats. In their previous outing, they fell to the Denver Broncos 17-14 in overtime, despite their defense allowing an average of just three yards per play.

The Seahawks’ run defense continues to be a strength, limiting opponents to just 3.5 yards per carry on average.

Kenneth Walker has been particularly impressive, leading the NFL in rushing yards with 665 and averaging 6.3 yards per carry.

⭐️ Editor’s Prediction
Kansas City arrive for this matchup boasting a flawless winning record, but a trip to Seattle will be a real test for the visitors’ offense. The Seahawks’ defense has been particularly effective against the run, so it’s unlikely Kenneth Walker will find the open lanes he’s used to. At the same time, the hosts have struggled to convert in attack, and Darnold’s seven interceptions only add to the risk of turnovers. Kansas City will also have to cope with the absence of several key offensive players, which could limit their ability to put together scoring drives. Given Seattle’s strong defense and the recent form of both teams, we’re expecting a cautious contest with few touchdowns. Our recommendation: back the under 42.5 points.
