Super Bowl LVII is just three days away as the Philadelphia Eagles and Kansas City Chiefs face off at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona, on Sunday.
Both the Chiefs and the Eagles have had remarkable performances this season. Super Bowl LVII features the classic battle of an elite offense against an elite defense.
The Eagles remained the slightest of favorites at BetUS Sportsbook as of Thursday morning, favored by just 1 point on the point spread.
The Eagles' defense is undoubtedly the best of the season. Philly leads the standings in average total points allowed per game (7), and what's more, no team has been able to score against them in the first or fourth quarter the entire season.
That last bit makes BetUS’s prop bet, “Will the Chiefs score in every quarter?” an intriguing bet. Odds on the ‘Yes’ are currently at +220 and on the ‘No’ at -280.
And while their stellar defense may earn all the buzz, the Eagles offense actually averages the most points scored per game (34.5).
But if we measure the efficiency in which a team scores while in the red zone, the Chiefs are the kings of kings with 83.33 % and a total of 61 touchdowns during the season compared to The Eagles’ 72.73% red zone efficiency for 59 TDs, which ranks fourth in the league.
The Kansas City Chiefs have the most yards of total offense by a team this season, with 7,032 yards. The Eagles are second with 6,614. The Chiefs also are first in points per drive (2.78), the percentage of drives that turn into touchdowns (35.1%), and the percentage of drives that put points on the board (46.8%).
BetUS has hundreds of game, player and novelty props available for Super Bowl LVII. Team bets - for example which team will have the most turnovers or passing yards - are some of the more popular props with bettors.
