Super Bowl prediction: Kansas City Chiefs-Philadelphia Eagles, the odds

Everything is ready for the 57th Super Bowl. Probably the most anticipated sporting event in the United States will be played on the night between Sunday 12 and Monday 13 February at the State Farm Stadium in Glendale, where Patrick Mahomes’ Kansas City Chiefs and Jalen Hurts’ Philadelphia Eagles will compete.

How they arrive

—

The Eagles come from a regular season in which their opponents were left with only crumbs: a 14-3 record and then dominated the playoffs, with victories without worries against the Giants and 49ers. Now, however, the various Jalen Hurts AJ Brown, DeVonta Smith, CJ Gardner-Johnson and Haason Reddick are called to further raise the bar: according to various analysts, the Kansas City Chiefs are of a much higher level than the opponents faced so far by the team led by Nick Sirianna. The Chiefs also finished the regular season with a 14-3 record, playing great football all season. And in the playoffs they eliminated the Jaguars and Bengals. Plus they’re more used to these big dates.

Duel Mahomes-Hurts

—

It’s more than a sensation: if it often happens that the two teams that make it to the Super Bowl aren’t the ones that actually delivered the best football of the year, this time it’s not like that. And there’s a challenge within the challenge: Mahomes versus Hurts. A challenge in which the experience factor could weigh in, which sees the Kansas quarterback decidedly ahead in this sense. According to some American analysts, even on a physical level Hurts could have difficulty keeping up with him: an aspect to take into consideration, in a game that promises to be balanced and uncertain until the end.

Who is the favourite?

—

There is no clear favorite over the other team. According to Oddschecker’s analysis, based on public betting data, over 60% of American bettors are betting on the Eagles. But historically the public is not very reliable in predictions. Predictions in which the Mahomes factor weighs heavily. In Italy, the betting sites give the Eagles slightly favorites with odds between 1.72 and 1.85 (Betfair), compared to the Chiefs who also reach 2.00 on PokerStars Sport. Who to bet on, then?
