NASCAR 2019 Hollywood Casino 400 Odds & Preview

The last race in the Round of 12 in the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series is this weekend, as NASCAR heads to Kansas for the 2019 Hollywood Casino 400. Talladega caused a lot of difficulty for drivers a week ago, so there are still a lot of drivers who could advance with a solid result this week. The course at Kansas Speedway is a 1.5-mile oval, where drivers took part in the Digital Ally 400 just five months ago. We have sports betting odds for the drivers to win the race as well as suggestions for your wagering cards.

Martin Truex Jr.

Truex Jr. is a co-favorite for a reason, having done quite well at Kansas Speedway with two victories in his last five events, finishing in the top five there four times over that stretch. During those five races, he has led for 208 laps, second-most of the drivers in those races, with a driver rating of 108.6 (third best).

Brad Keselowski

Keselowski has five consecutive top-20 finishes at Kansas Speedway, finishing in the top five four times, averaging a 7.20 finish. One of those finishes was a win — but he has only led for 56 total laps in those five races. Overall, though, his consistency at Kansas Speedway as well as his penchant for big showings in playoff races make him a solid play.

Kevin Harvick

Harvick has averaged a 2.8 starting position over his last five races at Kansas Speedway, the best in the field, which is one reason he is the other co-favorite. In those five races, he has a win, two top-five finishes, three top-ten finishes and five finishes in the top 20. He has led 308 laps over those races, more than any other driver.

Denny Hamlin

Hamlin has four victories in 2019 — tied with Kyle Busch for the second biggest total in the season. He hasn’t won since August, but he has cracked the top five three times since then, including at Talladega a week ago. He won once at Kansas Speedway, in the spring of 2012, and he is in third place in the NASCAR playoff standings heading into the weekend.

Chase Elliott

Elliot comes in as the defending champion; he became the youngest winner at Kansas Speedway in a Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series race at the age of 22. He last won on September 29, up at Charlotte, and he came in eighth at Talladega last week. He has plenty of motivation to win here, as he is currently two slots out of advancing into Round of 8.

Kyle Busch

Busch has not won since Pocono, all the way back in June. His Talladega race was not particularly impressive as he came in 19th, although he did come in sixth at Dover and was the runner-up at Richmond in the two prior races. He has won at Kansas Speedway, in the spring of 2016. He has the motivation to win, but we will see if he can end a long drought.
