The Kansas City Chiefs will square off against the Philadelphia Eagles at Super Bowl 2023 on Sunday. The game is bound to be a tight contest given the latest betting odds.
At the time of writing, the line is at -1.5 for the Eagles, which means that the Chiefs are the underdogs heading into the big game.
However, the odds could sway any way between now and the start of the game. This would depend on injuries and updates from either team before they lock horns at the State Farm Stadium in Arizona.
Interestingly, this is the first time that Kansas City quarterback Patrick Mahomes has been the underdog in a playoff game. The 27-year-old has an impressive 10-3 record in the postseason and has also tasted Super Bowl success in 2020.
But Mahomes has been dealing with an ankle injury that he suffered in the divisional round win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. Many believe that Mahomes' injury could be the reason why the Chiefs are tipped as the underdogs for this Sunday's game.
This makes Philadelphia the favorite to win the Super Bowl this season. The Eagles have steamrolled their opponents with Jalen Hurts as their starting quarterback.
The 24-year-old has looked like a man on a mission this season, leading Philadelphia to 16 wins as a starter. Hurts' red-hot form has led the bookmakers to believe that the Eagles are the best-equipped team to win the Lombardi Trophy.
Super Bowl 2023: How did the Chiefs and Eagles make it to the big game?
The Kansas City Chiefs finished the regular season as the No.1 seed, racking up a 14-3 record. Andy Reid's side then got the better of the Jaguars in the divisional round before taking down the Cincinnati Bengals in the AFC Championship matchup.
Meanwhile, the Philadelphia Eagles topped the NFC standings with a 14-3 record. Nick Sirianni's team brushed aside the New York Giants in the divisional round before another dominant win over the San Francisco 49ers in the NFC Championship game.
Nonetheless, the Eagles will face their toughest challenge yet at Super Bowl 2023. The Chiefs most recently won the Super Bowl two seasons ago and will be eager to get their hands on another Lombardi Trophy.
