The struggling Carolina Panthers will travel to Orchard Park to take on the Buffalo Bills on Sunday.

The Panthers are at the bottom of the AFC South standings with a 5-8 record and defeat on Sunday will ensure they finish the season with a losing record.

The Bills' hopes of defending their AFC East crown were given a new lease of life by the Indianapolis Colts, who beat the New England Patriots on Saturday. The Bills cannot afford a slip if they hope to retain their division title.

Here's the injury report and starting lineup for the Bills and Panthers:
