Super Bowl LIX odds, predictions and betting tips
THE EYES of the sporting world will descend on New Orleans this Sunday, February 9th, when the Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles meet for a second Super Bowl showdown in three years.
The Kansas City Chiefs are the favourites to win Super Bowl LIX and complete a historic three-peat, but a revitalised Eagles side looks to ruin the party.
The game promises to be one of the most intriguing and most-watched Super Bowls of all time, with fans worldwide waiting to see if the Kansas City Chiefs can etch their names into the history books. In this Super Bowl LIX odds and betting guide, I will look at what we can expect from Sunday’s game and pick out some of the best value bets from the event.
⭐ Super Bowl LIX best bets
- Saquon Barkley - 111.5+ Rushing Yards at 5/6 with Betano
- Super Bowl MVP - Jalen Hurts at 7/2 with BetMGM
- Xavier Worthy - Anytime Touchdown at 6/4 with Betfred
Super Bowl LIX Match Preview
The last time these two teams met in the Super Bowl in 2023 was a nail-biter, with the Chiefs narrowly winning 38-35. Jalen Hurts was on fire that day, and his personal quest for retribution could provide one of the Sunday night’s most thrilling narratives.
The man who pipped him to MVP on that night was, of course, Patrick Mahones. Mahones has been the sport’s biggest star for the last few years and has been the driving force behind the Kansas City Chiefs’ reign of terror.
There is, however, a strong argument that the Eagles are uniquely positioned to stop the Chiefs in a way that they weren’t two years ago. An upgraded and more youthful defence could play a pivotal role in keeping Mahones and Kelce at bay. At the same time, the contribution of Saqoun Barkley this season has been nothing short of exceptional.
If this season has taught us anything, though, it’s that you can not sleep on the Chiefs. Despite some rocky performances at the start of the campaign, they have kicked on and now stand on the precipice of sporting greatness. Betting against them on Sunday night would certainly be a big call.
While a lot of the NFL world would like to see The Eagles take home the Lombardi Trophy in New Orleans, I’m going to side with the bookies on this one and give the match to The Chiefs. History awaits, and few are willing to step up to that quite like Mahones.
📝 Super Bowl LIX betting tips
The bookies are finding Sunday’s showdown extremely tight to call. The Kansas Chiefs are narrowly favoured to secure a historic third-consecutive Super Bowl win, with BetMGM pricing them at 5/6. However, this is squeaky tight, with the Philadelphia Eagles priced at evens. With the winning markets looking close, let’s look at some other value bets you can find in the Super Bowl LIX odds, along with free bet offers from our online bookies.
Saquon Barkley - 111.5+ Rushing Yards
Sqaoun Barkley has been an absolute revelation for the Eagles this season, and there is a strong argument to be made that he would have broken Eric Dickerson’s all-time rush record had he not been rested for the final game ahead of the playoffs.
Barkley remained dominant throughout the playoffs, accumulating 442 rushing yards in three games, an impressive 147 average. While he is not likely to beat Timmy Smith’s Super Bowl Record of 204 rushing yards, Barkley should surpass 111.5, which makes the odds of 5/6 with Betano an attractive option.
➡️
Jalen Hurts as Super Bowl MVP
Patrick Mahones, Saquon Barkley, and Jalen Hurts are the three men most likely to be battling it out for MVP this weekend, and at 7/2 with BetMGM, Jalen Hurts offers terrific value.
While Saqoun Barkley has a good chance of taking it home if the Eagles win, 15 of the last 23 Super Bowl MVPs have been won by a quarterback, with no running back winning the award since Terrell Davis in 1998.
This is the first time since 2003 that a position other than quarterback has been in the top two odds for MVP, which presents a unique betting opportunity to get on Hurts. The controversial Tush Push will benefit him and help him grab some touchdowns, while short-yardage plays will also increase his chances significantly.
His efficiency in the red zone is second to none, and he is an incredibly effective game manager. While Mahones is the favourite in the market, and if The Chiefs win, it will be hard to look past him, Hurts is just far too good value at 7/2.
➡️
Xavier Worthy to score a touchdown at 6/4 with Betfred
The Anytime Touchdown markets present some excellent value ahead of the big game, and Xavier Worthy at 6/4 with Betfred offers precisely that. Chiefs’ coach Andy Reid is renowned for his creative play-calling in big games, and with the wide receiver being a primary target for Patrick Mahomes, he could be a crucial threat in New Orleans.
Worthy also has three touchdowns in his last four games, highlighting how much of a threat he can be in the red zone. At 6/4 with Betfred, I think there is real value to be found backing Xavier Worthy to score a touchdown anytime against the Philadelphia Eagles.
