Chiefs open as favorites to win Super Bowl LIX
Briefly

The Kansas City Chiefs are approaching Super Bowl LIX as 1.5-point favorites over the Philadelphia Eagles. This distinguishes them from their previous two Super Bowl appearances as underdogs. Following remarkable successes, including an overtime win against the San Francisco 49ers and a comeback against the Eagles in 2023, the Chiefs aim for an unprecedented three consecutive Super Bowl victories. Meanwhile, the Eagles have shown strength, overcoming early season odds of 11-1 and recently winning the NFC Championship. The betting public appears divided, though more are expected to favor the Chiefs in light of their pursuit of history.
The favored team has won 36 of 58 Super Bowls outright, but underdogs have been on a recent run, winning 10 of the last 17 Super Bowls.
We usually get a big flurry of bets for at least the first couple of hours. Sometimes the line moves, sometimes it doesn't.
The Chiefs were installed as a 1.5-point favorite over the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday at ESPN BET and sportsbooks around the nation.
Joey Feazel of Caesars Sportsbook said he expects the betting public to be relatively divided between Kansas City and Philadelphia, with more leaning towards the Chiefs.
