Here’s What To Know About The Oddsboard:
The Favorite
Can Kyle Larson get back-to-back wins?
Kyle Larson finally got into Victory Lane last weekend at Gateway after not finding his way there all year. He got there when it mattered most because now, only nine points separate him from Hamlin for The Chase lead. When the series stopped at Bristol in the spring of this year, Larson finished third.
The Chase Leader
Denny Hamlin will try to keep his lead in The Chase at Bristol
Denny Hamlin should feel confident going into the night race at Bristol since this is a track where, traditionally, he runs well. He finished ninth there earlier this year. He also finished ninth at Gateway last weekend. Over the course of the season, Hamlin has four wins and four poles.
WHAT YOU SHOULD READ NEXT
Kyle Larson’s big win at Gateway helped him tighten the gap substantially between himself and Denny Hamlin in The Chase standings.
