2024 Iowa Corn 350 – 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 1:37 a.m. ET.
It’s a good idea to focus on a driver who has been on the track before for a competitive race. While Larson (+400) tore it up in qualifying, WILLIAM BYRON (+1100) is a much better value to pick up the win at the inaugural NASCAR Cup Series race at Iowa Speedway.
Byron has the history at this track spanning longer than this weekend. He has picked up checkers in the Xfinity Series at Iowa Speedway, and he has a win in his lone start in the Truck Series. He has the chance at the trifecta Sunday.
2024 Iowa Corn 350 – Contender
BRAD KESELOWSKI (+1400) is worth a roll of the dice if you don’t take one of the favorites or Byron.
Keselowski has 7 races in the Xfinity Series under his belt at Iowa, and he has never finished lower than 8th place, while leading the pack for 332 laps. In 7 career starts, he has been inside the Top 5 on 6 occasions, with 3 checkered flags.
