There arent any clear betting trends that look poised to shift the Super Bowl line.<\/p>\n
The Los Angeles Rams opened up as 3.5-point favorites over the Cincinnati Bengals in Super Bowl LVI. The line quickly moved a point in the Rams favor in two half-point shifts by Tuesday. But its stabilized at 4.5 points at BetMGM and bettors are currently fairly split on which team will cover.<\/p>\n
The Rams are getting 46% of bets to cover the spread and those bets make up 53% of the handle the total money wagered on the line. The Bengals are getting slightly more bets, but those bets are worth slightly less than the bets on the Rams.<\/p>\n
BetMGM director of trading Jeff Stoneback told Yahoo Sports earlier this week that about 60% of the bets in the first few days of Super Bowl betting were on the Bengals and said the money would be even more split if it wasnt for a six-figure bet on the Rams to cover. He also guessed that the line may not move off 4.5 before the game kicks off.<\/p>\n
Bets on the total are split fairly evenly as well, though there is a decided money trend on the over\/under. The over\/under opened at 49.5 and is currently at 48.5 with 52% of bets on the over. Those over bets make up 62% of the handle.<\/p>\n
The biggest odds shift so far this week has been on the moneyline. The Rams opened up at -165 to win the Super Bowl straight up and currently sit at -200 to win the Super Bowl in their home stadium. The Bengals have moved from +140 to +165 to win the Super Bowl and those odds are generating a lot of bets. Just over 75% of bets on the moneyline are on the Bengals to win outright and those bets make up 64% of the handle.<\/p>\n
