With Super Bowl LIX just days away, the betting action is heating up as NFL fans place their wagers on one of the biggest sporting events of the year.
The defending champion Kansas City Chiefs enter as slight favorites against the Philadelphia Eagles, but bettors are showing strong support for the underdog.
Fans betting big on the Eagles
According to BetMGM, the most popular bet heading into the game is on the Eagles moneyline.
Kansas City, making its fifth Super Bowl appearance in six seasons, opened as a -130 favorite, meaning bettors must risk $130 to win $100 on a Chiefs victory.

The Eagles, who are playing in their second Super Bowl in three years, opened as +110 underdogs-offering a $110 payout for every $100 wagered if they win.
However, with significant money pouring in on Philadelphia, sportsbooks have adjusted their lines, now listing the Eagles at even odds in many places, while the Chiefs have shifted to -120.
Beyond the moneyline, the point spread has also seen movement.
Initially set at Kansas City -1.5, some sportsbooks have tightened the spread to just 1 point.
Notably, Eagles bets are outpacing Chiefs wagers in every state except Kansas, showing just how much confidence the betting public has in Philadelphia’s chances.
