Next on the 49ers' schedule are the undefeated Los Angeles Rams, who are holding onto a solid first-place lead in the NFC West. The Rams are coming off a 23-20 victory over the Denver Broncos at Mile High Stadium.
The matchup at Levi's Stadium was initially scheduled to be a primetime game on Sunday Night Football. The game, however, lost much of its appeal when the 49ers lost Garoppolo for the season when the star quarterback suffered a torn ACL. San Francisco is 0-3 without him and has lost two of its last three games by three-or-fewer points.
The Rams are currently listed anywhere from 9.5- to 11-point favorites over the home-team 49ers at Levi's Stadium, according to various casinos and betting sites.
The spread consensus currently has the Rams as 10-point favorites. Those numbers could change as the game draws near. The over/under for Monday night's game is listed at 52.5 points.
The Rams have won four of their last five games against the 49ers. The two teams split their series last year with the home team losing each game. The most recent of those two matchups resulted in a 34-13 victory by the 49ers at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum during the regular season finale for both teams.
The 49ers and Rams kick off at 1:25 p.m. PT on Sunday.
