The Las Vegas Raiders are already playing in some of the NFL's toughest stadiums this season.

Between their annual trips to Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Empower Field at Mile High in Denver, and their Week 7 game against the Chicago Bears at Soldier Field in Chicago, they'll compete against some of the league's rowdiest crowds.

But it could be much worse.

The Raiders will welcome the Green Bay Packers in Week 5, a team everyone knows is housed by perhaps the most hostile place to visit as an opponent in the league's history, Lambeau Field.

Fortunately for Las Vegas, that won't be a problem, as the Packers will travel to Sin City.

The Raiders have lost their last eight games against Green Bay, five of which have been at Lambeau.

The following week, the Raiders host the New England Patriots, another team whose home stadium is not where you want to find yourself as a visitor.

Not only will Las Vegas be having its game at Allegiant Stadium instead of Gillette Stadium, but it will do so for the second straight season. 

In Week 14, the Raiders will take on the Minnesota Vikings, a club they have not faced since 2019, when they lost 34-14, at U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis.

This time, the Silver and Black will be facing the NFC opponent on their home turf, another great luxury when considering the arduous task of winning on the road at another one of the league's most intimidating territories.

Ideally, the Las Vegas Raiders hope to turn Allegiant Stadium into what they had at the Oakland Coliseum.  The Coliseum was the once-feared residence of the Silver and Black, and until now, Allegiant Stadium has offered a warm reception to guests, many times the visiting crowd outnumbering the Silver and Black faithful.

That will change when the Raiders return to their once consistent, willing ways, and the feared Raider Nation returns in force to make a Silver and Black home game, just that, an actual home game.
