The 2019/20 NFL season is coming to a close, and the Conference championship teams are set and ready to play this upcoming Sunday for a chance to earn a spot in the Super Bowl.
AFC Championship
The 2020 AFC Championship game will feature the Tennessee Titans vs. the Kansas City Chiefs. The Titans overcame two of the most highly favored teams to earn their spot in the AFC championship game. The Titans took out the New England Patriots in the Wild Card round before triumphing over the Baltimore Ravens in the Divisional round.
The Chiefs earned a first-round bye and didn’t have to play in the Wild Card round, but they were tested early by the Houston Texans in the Divisional round. After falling behind 24 – 0 in the first quarter of the game, Chiefs quarterback Pat Mahomes went on a touchdown tangent throwing for four touchdowns in the second quarter giving his team the lead going into halftime. The Chiefs finished the Texans in the second half earning their spot in the Conference Championship.
Most seasoned bettors who like betting on NFL games are favoring the Kansas City Chiefs over the “Cinderella story” Tennessee Titans. Still, everyone knows it could go either way on any given Sunday. Below are the current odds available at Bovada for the game.
Bovada Odds:
Team | Spread | Win | Total
Tennessee Titans: +7.5 (-105) | +265 | O 52.5 (-110)
Kansas City Chiefs: -7.5 (-115) | -330 | U 52.5 (-110)
NFC Championship
The 2020 NFC Championship will feature the Green Bay Packers vs. the San Francisco 49ers. Both Green Bay and the 49ers won their game in the divisional round earning a spot in the NFC Championship game. The 49ers have been heavy favorites throughout the year, and Green Bay has been more of a sleeper team.
Green Bay lost to the 49ers (37-8) in week 12 of the regular season. In that season game, the 49ers defensive shut the Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers and held him to only 104 passing yards for the game. 49ers Quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo threw for 253 yards with half his passing yards coming from TE George Kittle alone.
Top sports analysists are picking the 49ers to win the NFC because of their impressive defense and their week 12 win over the Packers; however, if anyone can lead a team to victory, it is Packers QB Aaron Rodgers. Below are the game lines provided by Bovada for the NFC Championship.
Bovada Odds:
Team | Spread | Win | Total
Green Bay Packers: +7.5 (-115) | +270 | O 45.0 (-110)
San Francisco 49ers: -7.5 (-105) | -340 | U 45.0 (-110)
Betting on the Super Bowl or Conference Championships is one of the most exciting things about professional football betting, and now that more states are open to accepting bets, it has become easier than ever. Today there are more than ever 18+ sports betting states, but for bettors looking for a more convenient option, we suggest offshore betting sites.
Offshore betting sites will often accept players over the age of 18 and offers multiple ways to bet on NFL games, sports futures, and more. While some states have elected to offer mobile betting, offshore sites have perfected the service years ago and have more to offer than most state-operated sites. Most states operated sports betting apps try to do what offshore sites have been doing for years.
However, if you choose to bet on the Championship games, we hope you take advantage of our in-depth guides and learn the ins and outs of the sports betting world before you place a bet.
