Super Bowl LVIII 49ers vs Chiefs Betting: Spread and Over/Under Analysis

Here is our Super Bowl LVIII 49ers vs Chiefs Betting analysis of both the spread and the over/under for this game.

Spread

Following the Chiefs’ AFC Championship victory over Baltimore, look-ahead odds projected San Francisco as a 3-point favorite in Super Bowl LVIII. On Sunday night, after the 49ers won the NFC championship with a comeback against Detroit, bookies opened the Niners at -3 to -2.5.

That line did not last long. Within the first 30 minutes of betting action, money on Kansas City had reduced the spread to San Francisco -2, and within an hour of taking bets, the 49ers were as low as 1-point chalk.

The market consensus is 49ers -1. According to the market, 70% of early picks are betting on the underdog Chiefs, while sportsbooks such as YouWager.lv reported 66% ticket count and 67% handle backing Kansas City.

The initial adjustment to the Super Bowl spread has been on the right side of the game in 11 of the last 16 championships, while the market moved to the favorite Philadelphia (-1 to -2.5) in last year’s Super Bowl and Kansas City won outright as a closing +1.5 underdog.

The early shift toward the underdog is an unusual deviation from historical Super Bowl betting tendencies. The favorite typically receives more support in the two weeks leading up to the game, with the public gravitating toward the better team.

Only once in the last five Super Bowls has the dog been the early favorite, and that was Tom Brady and Tampa Bay in Super Bowl LV (Bucs +3.5 to +3 and later defeated Kansas City 31-9).

Public perception, along with excellent road performances in the last two games, has won over many K.C. bettors hoping for an edge on the opening lines. While Mahomes is the X-factor for many, the defense is the primary reason the team is playing in its second consecutive Super Bowl.

Despite facing powerful offenses in Miami, Buffalo, and Baltimore, the Chiefs’ defense has allowed only 41 total points all playoffs. Defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo is one of the best game managers in the NFL, throwing a lot of blitz packages at opposing quarterbacks while changing up looks and coverages to keep them guessing.

San Francisco’s offense will have to keep second-year quarterback Brock Purdy upright. The 49ers’ offense uses pre-snap motion to capitalize on coverage mismatches, but Purdy has the fourth-longest average time in the pocket (2.6 seconds) and will need to get rid of the ball much faster to dodge the Chiefs pass rush.

Fortunately, Purdy has a formidable group of game-changing talent surrounding him. Kyle Shanahan finds innovative methods to get the ball in the hands of his finest players and has two of the most exciting weapons in RB. Christian McCaffrey and wide receiver Deebo Samuel are wreaking damage on the ground and in the air.

Super Bowl LVIII will most likely come down to the Niners’ defense and its ability to limit Mahomes and Co. San Francisco’s defense was one of the finest in the league all season, but it gave up significant gains in postseason victories over Green Bay and Detroit.

Total

The Super Bowl LVIII total began at 47 to 48 points, resulting in a 47.5 industry consensus on Monday morning. According to the market, 69% of early total bets are picking the Over, while YouWager.lv sportsbook reported 82% of bets and 90% of handling on the Over.

This figure could rise considering that the Super Bowl is the most widely bet game in North America, with many first-time gamblers putting money down. Those casual fans want something to cheer for, thus we frequently see big leaning to the Over as kickoff approaches.

The Chiefs have been one of the better Under bets this season, with their offense failing to match previous performance and the defense keeping games close. Kansas City is 6-14 overall this season, but only 5-6 on the road/neutral site.

Kansas City has struggled in the red zone during the playoffs. The Chiefs have left a lot of points on the table, going 6-for-13 on touchdowns within opponents’ 20-yard lines over the last three games. San Francisco’s RZ defense placed in the middle of the pack in terms of touchdown percentage allowed in postseason, allowing five points on nine red-zone drives.

The 49ers have an overall O/U record of 11-8, including a 5-4 mark away from Levi’s Stadium. While San Francisco’s offense has been among the most effective in the league, averaging 28.9 points per game, it has the slowest tempo, with Shanahan’s pre-snap motion taking 30.7 seconds per play.

Allegiant Stadium will host Super Bowl LVIII, an indoor event featuring a natural grass pitch grown outside and hauled in for games. Last year’s clash took place at State Farm Stadium in Scottsdale, Arizona.
