Five reasons to be excited for Super Bowl LIX

Super Bowl LIX has been set with the two teams competing in the biggest show on earth. 

Once again it will be the Kansas City Chiefs and Philadelphia Eagles which will be a rematch of Super Bowl LVII. The Chiefs squeezed past the Eagles in that game with a 38-35 win. 

The Chiefs and Eagles are two of the NFL's powerhouses right now and it's fitting that the two will go head-to-head once more for the Vince Lombardi Trophy. 

DAZN News gives you five reasons to be excited for Super Bowl LVII.

The Chiefs bid for history in New Orleans

The Chiefs are the dominant force in the NFL right now, there is no question about it. 

The team will be making a third successive appearance in the NFL's biggest game and will be looking to make it three wins from three, something which has never been done in the history of the NFL.  

If the Chiefs do indeed manage to secure a historic 'three-peat', then there is a conversation to be had as to whether they are better than the New England Patriots team which dominated the 2000s and 2010s. 

Saquon Barkley ready to be unleashed on the big stage

In his first season with the Eagles, running back Saquon Barkley finds himself preparing for a Super Bowl debut. 

Arriving from division rivals the New York Giants, Barkley has slotted straight into a must-watch Eagles offense. 

In the postseason alone Barkley has posted some huge numbers, rushing for 442 yards with five touchdowns. 

From the many notable playoff highlights from Barkley, a marauding 78 yard touchdown run in the snow against the Los Angeles Rams is a standout, and Eagles fans will be hoping Barkley can wreak havoc against the Chiefs on Super Bowl Sunday. 

Kendrick Lamar set for eagerly-anticipated halftime show

The halftime show is an integral part of any Super Bowl, and this year's performance will come from superstar rapper Kendrick Lamar. 

Fresh off releasing surprise album GNX, expect Lamar to mix tracks from his new release with some of his classics. 

It has also been announced that the 37-year-old will be joined by SZA and those watching can expect a one-of-a-kind show from one of music's most talked about artists. 

Eagles offensive line vs. Chiefs defense

The Eagles offensive line has played a vital role in the team's success this season.

Their efforts are even more impressive when it's having to nurse injuries with Cam Jurgens and Landon Dickerson having to share snap duties at centre.

If the Eagles offensive line can perform to its fullest, it will be of huge help to the game plan, especially for Barkley who will be seeking gaps in the Chiefs defensive line. 

Therefore, if the Chiefs are to cause the Eagles to stumble, defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo will need to find a way to exploit a banged up Eagles o-line and slow down a relentless offense. 

The Patrick Mahomes and Xavier Worthy connection

When it comes to the Chiefs in the postseason, it's often the relationship between quarterback Patrick Mahomes and tight end Travis Kelce which takes centre stage. 

This time around, it's the connection between Mahomes and rookie wide receiver Xavier Worthy which has caught the imagination of NFL fans. 

Worthy's progress throughout the season has been one of a player growing in confidence and becoming a vital cog in the Chiefs offense. 

After a performance against the Buffalo Bills which is being hailed as his best so far, then the possibilities are endless as to what Worthy can produce when he takes the field in New Orleans for Super Bowl LIX.
