Key Players to Watch

All eyes will be on Patrick Mahomes, whose performance under pressure could clinch that three-peat for the Chiefs. His agility, arm strength, and decision-making under pressure make him a pivotal figure. On the other side, Jalen Hurts has been the heartbeat of the Eagles' offense with his dual-threat capabilities. Their play could very well dictate where your bets land, so watch their form and health closely as game day approaches. Players like Travis Kelce and A.J.

Super Bowl 2025 Predictions & Best Bets

From what I've seen, the Chiefs seem poised to continue their winning streak, but don't count out the Eagles. Their defence has been formidable, and if they can keep Mahomes contained, they stand a chance. My tip? Look at betting on the under for total points if you think this will be a defensive battle. For value, consider Travis Kelce for anytime touchdown at 2.10 odds or even a punt on Jalen Hurts for MVP if he has a standout game. Also, with both teams known for their running games, betting on the first touchdown to come from a rush might offer good odds. Keep an eye on special teams too; a big play here could turn the tide.
