The Super Bowl is the biggest day on the sports betting calendar and on the sports calendar as a whole in the United States. But what time is the Super Bowl? Here, we answer that question and plenty of other important questions about the biggest game of the year in football, so you don’t miss the big game.
What Time Is the Super Bowl?
Super Bowl 59 will start at 6:30 p.m. ET and will be broadcast on FOX. Fans can also stream the game through the FOX Sports app or a Fubo subscription. Super Bowl 59 will take place in New Orleans, featuring a halftime performance by Kendrick Lamar.
This start time has become customary for the Super Bowl, as it is accommodating to as many time zones as possible while still not ending too late on the East Coast. While the day after the Super Bowl is still not a national holiday, the ability for football fans in all time zones to get to sleep at a reasonable hour after the game is a key factor in that decision.
Where Is Super Bowl 59?
Super Bowl LIX is being played at Caesars Superdome in New Orleans, the home of the New Orleans Saints.
Who Is Playing In Super Bowl LIX?
The two teams playing in Super Bowl 59 are the Philadelphia Eagles and Kansas City Chiefs. The Eagles were the second seed in the NFC and did more than enough in their three NFC playoff games to win and advance to the Super Bowl. Meanwhile, the Kansas City Chiefs won two games in a row in the playoffs to get to this game after entering the playoffs as the top seed in the AFC.
There is some major history on the line in this Super Bowl on the Chiefs side. They are looking for their third straight Super Bowl championship, a feat that has never been accomplished before in the Super Bowl era. Philadelphia will look to prevent that historic feat from happening in what should be a great game from Caesars Superdome.
What Are the Super Bowl Odds?
At the time of this writing, the Kansas City Chiefs are slight favorites in Super Bowl LIX. The Chiefs opened as 1.5-point favorites, with the opening total being set at 48.5 points. It is important for bettors to track the line movements leading up to the Super Bowl and to decide when the best time to wager is. The goal of any bettor should be to get the best number that they can on any particular wager that they are interested in making. This will maximize the chances of being profitable when wagering on this or any football game.
How to Watch the Super Bowl
In addition to knowing the Super Bowl start time, it is vital to know how to watch the game as well. This year’s game is airing on FOX on traditional television. For those who are going the streaming route instead, FOX Sports’ app is the streaming service that FOX is tied with.
