The matchup is set for Super Bowl LIX and the early lines indicate a close game is expected by Vegas oddsmakers.
The earliest lines for SBLIX have the Chiefs favored by 1.5 points over the Eagles in the NFL's title game set for February 9 at the Caesars Superdome in New Orleans. The Eagles advanced after rolling over the Washington Commanders in the NFC conference championship, while the Chiefs barely edged the Bills at home.
The Chiefs concluded the 2024 regular season with a 15-2 record but had a less impressive 7-9-1 record against the spread (ATS). K.C. was favored in 14 games and the team won all of them but covered the spread in only six.
The Eagles finished their season at 14-3, achieving an 11-6 record against the spread. They faced seven playoff-bound teams during the regular season, securing a 5-2 record both straight up and ATS.
This Super Bowl delivers a rematch of the Super Bowl from two seasons prior, where the Chiefs narrowly defeated the Eagles with a late field goal. Jalen Hurts and running back Saquon Barkley will lead the Eagles toward a chance at redemption while Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs are chasing NFL history in the form of a third consecutive Super Bowl victory.
The Chiefs are the first back-to-back champion to ever even make it back to the Super Bowl for a third time, so they've already made history. Now the odds are in their favor to come through for a three-peat.
