Super Bowl LVIII Preview
It’s been a turbulent ride thus far for the three-time Super Bowl winners Kansas City. It is the Chiefs’ fourth Super Bowl appearance in five seasons and they are looking to become the first team to win back-to-back rings in 20 years.
The Chiefs have had a somewhat underwhelming year by their own standards, finishing the regular season with an 11-6 record. This was only enough to secure them a Wild Card spot, but as always, they stepped up a gear in the postseason.
Led by MVP candidate Patrick Mahomes, they dispatched some of the best teams in the league, including a dominant 17-10 victory against number one seed Baltimore in the AFC Championship game.
San Francisco finished the regular season 12-5, the NFC number one seed. They have had a more testing time in the playoffs, surviving scares against both the Green Bay Packers and Detroit Lions.
It is running back Christian McCaffrey who has continued to shine in the postseason, scoring four touchdowns in two games to lead his side to Las Vegas.

Super Bowl LVIII Betting Tips
Kansas City Chiefs to win the Super Bowl – 2.18
In the postseason, the Chiefs have demonstrated why they are the most dominant team in the NFL. A rock-solid defence, paired with Mahomes’ big plays is a recipe for success. The Kansas City QB is enhancing his legendary status ever year because he knows how to get the job done. It’s never a good idea to bet against him.
Travis Kelce anytime touchdown scorer – 1.80
In the tightest of games, Mahomes so often goes to his trusted tight end Kelce. It’s like the pair have a psychic connection. This is set to be a close matchup, and the longer it stays that way, the more Mahomes will be looking to find his old pal in the end zone.
