Favorites
Tyler Reddick (Odds +700)
Our first favorite is Tyler Reddick. This driver is not part of the playoffs: he was eliminated after the round of 16, but, despite this, his last races have been very good, as well as his season in general. He has won on three occasions, most recently at the Autotrader EchoPark Automotive 500, and in the last two races he finished in 8th and 6th place.
Denny Hamlin (Odds +800)
In second place, we have Denny Hamlin, who is in fourth place in the playoffs. Of his last 11 races, he has placed in the top 5 six times, twice in the top 10 and twice below 13th place. In general, these are good results, and he has a strong position in the table. He is a driver who, together with his team, created a strategy that has allowed him to stay in the playoffs without complications.
Ross Chastain (Odds +1000)
Now, Ross Chastain is the driver behind leader Joey Logano with a 21-point gap between them. He finished second in the South Point 400 and fourth at Talladega. However, they have struggled to keep up, and since the playoffs began, their results have gone up and down, but not enough to lose their place in the table.
Sleeper Picks
Kyle Larson (Odds +1000)
Kyle Larson was just eliminated after the round of 12, as he finished 35th in his last two races, which really affected his score and good performance in the first races of the playoffs. He will certainly want to make up for some of what he lost this Sunday’s race at the Dixie Vodka 400.
Ryan Blaney (Odds +1100)
Ryan Blaney is in seventh place and is at risk of elimination. He is one of our sleeper picks because he has finished 30th, 28th and 26th in the playoffs. As we discussed before about Kyle Larson, these results end up being deadly for the standings. Nevertheless, he achieved two top 5 and one top 10 places.
Dark Horse
Kyle Busch (Odds +1100)
Finally, we have Kyle Busch, who in the three most recent NASCAR Cup Series dates has managed to improve his pace. This may be a long shot, but he is an old dog who knows his way around the competition and has had one win this season. In addition, he finished third in both Charlotte and Las Vegas.

JefeBet Prediction
With this, the driver most likely to reach the finish line first is Ross Chastain. In fact, this driver has the most at stake, as he could reach the highest position and compete in the final phase of the playoffs for the cup. Thus, he will seek revenge for the last race in which Logano overtook him to finish first.
