The Atlanta Falcons (4-3) and Tampa Bay Buccaneers (4-3) will battle for the top in the NFC South at 1 p.m. Sunday inside Raymond-James Stadium.

Just 24 days after Atlanta took a 36-30 victory over Tampa Bay in Week 5 on Thursday Night Football, the two sides will meet again.

With the game still fresh on the memories of both teams, this meeting leaves no secrets -- which Falcons defensive coordinator Jimmy Lake said is a challenge for both parties.

"I think if you ask both coaching staffs, I would say it's probably more difficult," Lake said. "We just saw them, they saw us. 'Okay, we got them on this. Are we going to do that again? Are we going to do something else?'

'And same thing, 'Hey, this play works well now, they think they're going to run this play, and we think they're not going to run that play.' So I think it's actually a little bit more difficult."

Here's how to watch -- and what to know -- before Sunday afternoon ...
