The Philadelphia Eagles and Kansas City Chiefs will face off for the 59th Super Bowl this Sunday at 5:30 p.m. Central. The game will take place at Caesars Superdome in New Orleans, making it the eighth game at the Superdome (the most of any NFL stadium) and the 11th time the game has been held in New Orleans.

Super Bowl LIX is a rematch of Super Bowl LVII, where the Chiefs won 38-35, beating the Eagles on a last-minute field goal by Harrison Butker.

Here are a few things to know about the big game:

Who’s playing?

The Chiefs are making their seventh Super Bowl appearance and are looking to become the first franchise to win three straight Super Bowls. If the Chiefs win, it would be their fifth Super Bowl title. The Eagles are looking for their second Super Bowl title as they make their fifth Super Bowl appearance.

Who’s performing at the halftime show?

Hip-hop artist Kendrick Lamar will take the halftime stage fresh off his successful Grammy Awards appearance, where he won five awards including song and record of the year. The “Not Like Us” rapper will be joined by special guest R&B singer-songwriter SZA.

When asked recently what viewers can expect from the halftime show, Lamar, who is a Pulitzer Prize winner, said, “Storytelling. I think I’ve always been very open about storytelling through all my catalog and my history of music. And I’ve always had a passion about bringing that on whatever stage I’m on.”

Soul singer Jon Batiste, a Louisiana native, is scheduled to sing the national anthem. Trombone Shorty and Lauren Daigle, who both also hail from the Bayou State, are slated to perform “America the Beautiful.” New Orleans native Ledisi will perform “Lift Every Voice and Sing.”

How can I watch the game?

Super Bowl LIX will be televised by Fox in the United States and is available to watch on your local Fox station. Spanish-language commentary is available on Fox Deportes and Telemundo.
