Chiefs Open as Favorites Over 49ers in Super Bowl LIV

The matchup for Super Bowl LIV is set, and the Kansas City Chiefs hold a slight edge over the San Francisco 49ers in the early betting odds.

While the line opened at Chiefs -1 at Westgate Las Vegas SuperBook, it quickly shifted to Chiefs -1.5 at other sportsbooks. The over/under total also grew to 53.5 after starting at 52.5.
