Chiefs look to continue positive ATS trend as favorites in the Super Bowl
Favorites have covered the spread in two straight Super Bowls, and three of the last four. Overall, favorites are 27-25-2 in the 54-year history of the Super Bowl.
Betting Impact:
The Kansas City Chiefs look to continue this trend of favorites' success as three-point favorites over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, per BettingPros consensus odds. The Chiefs are no strangers to covering spreads as favorites in the Super Bowl, as they easily covered as -1.5 point favorites in a 31-20 win over the 49ers in last year's Super Bowl. However, many bettors will likely be enticed by the underdog Buccaneers given that they have the most successful quarterback of all-time under center, and that they are the first team ever to play in their home stadium in a Super Bowl. The Chiefs had made a brief stop at -3.5 earlier in the week (according to BettingPros consensus odds), but have since been bet back down to the key number of three.
