[gambcom-standard rankid=”3011″ ]

The NASCAR Cup Series hits Charlotte Motor Speedway Sunday for the 2024 Coca-Cola 600. Green flag is scheduled to drop shortly after 6 p.m. ET (FOX). Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the 2024 Coca-Cola 600 odds, and make our expert NASCAR picks and predictions.

2024 Coca-Cola 600: What you need to know

Joe Gibbs Racing driver Ty Gibbs is on the pole for the 600. He finished 26th in his only previous Cup start in Charlotte last season after also starting 19th
JGR’s Martin Truex Jr. has 3 career Cup victories at Charlotte Motor Speedway in 32 starts, posting a 13.7 Average-Finish Position (AFP)
JGR’s Denny Hamlin has picked up a win, 11 top-5 finishes, 20 top-10 runs and 415 laps led with a 12.7 AFP in 32 career Cup starts at the track
23XI Racing’s Tyler Reddick has 5 Cup starts under his belt at Charlotte, leading all active drivers with an 8.4 AFP. While his best start at the track is 5th, he has never finished lower than 14th
Hendrick Motorsports driver Kyle Larson is attempting to race in both the Indianapolis 500 and Sunday’s NASCAR race. However, rain might delay or wash out the 500, and it is possible Larson could have to go to Indianapolis to race Monday
Team Penske’s Joey Logano, the winner of last weekend’s All-Star Race, has a win in 25 career Cup starts at CMS, and he has finished inside the top 5 on 6 occasions, with 340 laps led and 1 DNF
Richard Childress Racing’s Kyle Busch has a win and 16 top-5 finishes with a 13.7 AFP in 35 career Cup starts at Charlotte
JTG Daugherty’s Ricky Stenhouse Jr. has managed 2 top-5 finishes and 5 top-10 runs with 7 laps led and a 16.1 AFP in 19 career Cup starts at Charlotte
Busch and Stenhouse had a dust-up in North Wilkesboro after the All-Star race last weekend — they’ll be worth watching

2024 Coca-Cola 600 – Expert pick

Odds provided by BetMGM Sportsbook; access USA TODAY Sports Scores and Sports Betting Odds hub for a full list. Lines last updated at 5:53 a.m. ET.

TYLER REDDICK (+1000) is a giant value at this price as a win by the 23XI Racing driver pays 10 to 1.

Reddick has never won at Charlotte Motor Speedway in a Cup race, but he has never finished lower than 14th, either. He leads all active drivers with an impressive 8.4 AFP, with the nearest competitor, Hamlin (min. 5 starts) at 12.7 AFP.

Reddick has led 53 laps in his 5 appearances at CMS, and he has improved from an average start spot of 11.2.

2024 Coca-Cola 600 – Long shot

ROSS CHASTAIN (+2500) has the tools to win the Coca-Cola 600, although he has long odds because his overall numbers are fairly poor at CMS. In 6 career Cup starts, he has just a single top-20 finish with 153 laps led and 1 DNF. His best start is 15th, and he has a dismal 25.8 AFP.

He is coming off a 7th-place finish at North Wilkesboro, and he finished 11th at Darlington. He started the season strong, but he had some struggled in the middle portion of the schedule leading up to the All-Star race. He is starting to turn the corner, and is a strong value at this price. A $5 wager will net you a $125 with a checkered flag here.

Sunday 3-race parlay

MAX VERSTAPPEN to win Monaco GP (+800), WILL POWER to win Indy 500 (+725), and REDDICK to win Coca-Cola 600 (+1000) pays 815.75 to 1 at BetMGM Sportsbook. It’s a long-shot, sure, but that’s what makes it fun. A simple $2 bet would profit $1,623.50. That’s worth a roll of the dice.
