Gear Up for the USA TODAY 301: Guide to NASCAR Betting Odds, Lines & Prediction

We’re gearing up for another weekend of excitement in the NASCAR Cup Series, with a fresh leader taking the helm in the driver standings.

We have seen several lead changes throughout the season, with Chase Elliott now taking his turn at the top.

My Cup Series Analysis

It may be short-lived, though, as it is incredibly tight up there at the moment. This weekend, we will see the action shift to New Hampshire for the running of the USA TODAY 301.

There are any number of drivers who could take the checkered flag this Sunday, but the bookies have some definite ideas as to who that might be.

With that in mind, let’s take a look at some of the NASCAR odds provided by MyBookie Sportsbook, and favorites for the USA TODAY 301, which goes this Sunday at 2:30 PM EST.

Christopher Bell NASCAR Lines +440

Bell has exploded onto the Cup Series scene by making it to the Championship Round in each of the last 2 seasons, which came after a rough couple of years at this level.

The goal now is to take the next step and win a championship, and you have to say that he is in the conversation again this year.

Bell already has a pair of wins this season and is on a very good run of form, finishing in the top 10 in each of his last 4 races. He had a poor run in New Hampshire last season, but in the 2 years prior, he ran 1st and 2nd, respectively on this track.

Martin Truex Jr. NASCAR Lines +530

Even when a driver is not racing particularly well, you need to look at their past performances on the upcoming track.

Truex Jr. has certainly not been at his best this season, but might we see that change this weekend? He won on this track last season and ran in the top 5 the year prior to that victory.

As good as that is, you also cannot ignore the fact that he has failed to crack the top 10 for 5 straight races now. Securing a position among the top 10 on Sunday could be considered as a triumph.

Denny Hamlin NASCAR Lines +600

Hamlin has occupied the top position in the driver rankings this season for a while, but his subpar performances in the last two races have caused him to fall to the third place. However, this is still a commendable position.

There is the feeling that his current dip is temporary, as he was in a great run of form prior to those last 2 races, finishing in the top 5 in 5 straight races.

He has landed in the top 10 in each of the last 5 runs in this race, so there is every reason to believe that a top 5 could be on tap this weekend.

Kyle Larson NASCAR Lines +720

Since missing a race in the Cup Series to take part in the Indy 500, Larson has been a little up and down.

He does have 1 win since that absence, but just barely cracked the top 10 in the other 2 races. He is coming off a not so great showing last weekend and will be looking to get back up among the leaders this weekend.

Furthermore, he had a very good run in this race in 2023, finishing 3rd in that one, so there is every reason to believe he could be a factor on Sunday.
