San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk is not convinced that the Philadelphia Eagles defence will cope with Kansas City Chiefs at Super Bowl LVII.
Aiyuk knows both teams' capabilities well, as he faced the Chiefs in Week 7 before losing to the Eagles in the NFC Championship game.
The 24-year-old, who made 78 receptions for 1,015 yards this season, reckons the Eagles are fortunate to be in contention for the Super Bowl after a string of quarter-back injuries hamstrung the 49ers in the NFC Championship clash.
"I don't know fully about that defense," Aiyuk said on TheSFNiners YouTube show.
"They talk about them being a good defense. I'm not too sure.
"I think this Kansas City pass game will expose what we thought we were going to be able to expose before some unfortunate circumstances.
"We'll see. But like I said, you got to get lucky to win a Super Bowl. And they just got extremely lucky last week."
Super Bowl LVII kicks off on Sunday, 12 February at the University of Phoenix Stadium.
