Share

The 49ers (1-3) take on an NFC West foe Sunday in front of their home fans at Levi's Stadium. 

Will the losing streak come to an end when the Cardinals (0-4) come to town? The 49ers will be leaning on C.J. Beathard under center while Arizona has turned to rookie Josh Rosen. 

And on defense, the 49ers have to contain running back David Johnson, who is always a threat as a runner and receiver. 

NFL experts from around the country have made their picks for Sunday's clash, and the sides seem to be split.
