What is the Super Bowl?

The Super Bowl pits the winners of the two conferences in the NFL - the AFC and the NFC - against each other, in a winner-takes-all showdown.

Take a look at how New England Patriots made it to Super Bowl LIII, where they will face the Los Angeles Rams.

From the AFC, the Patriots search for a record-equalling sixth Super Bowl win, appearing in their fourth final in five years. It's New England's 11th Super Bowl appearance in total, and ninth under the stewardship of head coach Bill Belichick and 41-year-old quarterback Tom Brady. They did, however, lose last year's title game, slipping to a 41-33 defeat to the Philadelphia Eagles.

Who are the Super Bowl finalists?

What do you need to know about the New England Patriots and Los Angeles Rams, the two teams competing in this year's Super Bowl?

This year's representative from the NFC is the Los Angeles Rams, through to only their fourth Super Bowl as a franchise. The Rams represented Los Angeles when losing to the Pittsburgh Steelers in 1980, while their most recent trips in 2000 - their sole win - and 2002 were while based in the city of St. Louis.

That 2002 defeat was to the Patriots, a 20-17 upset which handed New England its first Vince Lombardi trophy and triggered their record run since. That Rams team was nicknamed 'The Greatest Show on Turf' due to its explosive, high-scoring offense and, after some barren years subsequently, head coach Sean McVay has revived the franchise much in that team's image following their move back to L.A.
