Super Bowl LIV betting line: Chiefs open as small favorites over 49ers

A blowout in the NFC championship game meant MGM could get a jump on establishing a line for Super Bowl LIV.

During the second half of the San Francisco 49ers’ rout, MGM determined that the opening line for the Super Bowl would be the Kansas City Chiefs favored by 1.5 points. The line quickly moved to the Chiefs as a 1-point favorite.

Because of the volume of bets taken on the Super Bowl, the line can move quickly after it is released if there’s a lot of action on one side. Given the low spread and the star power on both teams, there is expected to be a lot of betting action on this Super Bowl.
