The Chiefs narrowly missed out on a spot at this year’s Super Bowl after an over-time thriller against the Patriots in the American Conference final on Sunday.
The Rams booked their place in the NFL’s showpiece game after a controversial victory over the New Orleans Saints in the NFC championship.
Rams cornerback Nickell Robey-Coleman appeared to have committed a pass interference on Saints wide receiver Tommylee Lewis late in the contest, who looked to be on course to score a winning touchdown.
The officials however, didn’t spot any offence and the game went to over-time where the Rams were victorious.
Further details for the London ties will be announced later this year as part of the full NFL schedule release.
