NASCAR Xfinity Series Odds and Betting Opportunities in Drive for the Cure 250

The Sparks 300 at Talladega Superspeedway went to A.J. Allmendinger last week, as the NASCAR Xfinity Series Playoffs continue. He broke a streak of three races in which he had led the white flag lap at a superspeedway but failed to lead the next lap and take the win. This time around, he waited and then pulled into the lead at the last minute, beating Sam Mayer by 0.015 seconds – or about three feet – in a photo finish. Allmendinger won the regular season title, but this was his first win ever in a superspeedway. This win gave him an automatic berth in the next round of the Xfinity Series playoffs as well. Next up is the Drive for the Cure 250, set for Saturday at 3:00 pm Eastern time on The Roval (the road course at Charlotte Motor Speedway). The telecast will come on NBC, and you can listen to the radio call on the SiriusXM app. Check out the NASCAR Xfinity betting odds for the field as well as our wager card suggestions.

NASCAR News: Xfinity Series Drive for the Cure 250 Preview

 

 

A.J. Allmendinger would get four straight Roval wins with a victory this Saturday. He’s already punched his ticket to the next round, so he has nothing to lose here. His success on this track makes him a smart pick despite the lack of value.

Noah Gragson saw his winning streak come to an end on the superspeedway last week. Moving to a road course is a challenge for Gragson, as he has plenty of talent and speed but has not yet figured out how to manage those into a road course victory.

Ty Gibbs is the only regular Xfinity Series driver who has not won on a road course this year – except for Allmendinger. Gibbs is a fairly new driver at the Roval, though, so I’m not sure I’d put a lot of cash down on him.

Justin Allgaier is a bit of a sleeper pick, because he’s strong enough to finish in the top five, but he will have a hard time beating all of the favorites. As we’ve seen time and time again, though, all it takes is some chaos late in the race for a strong sleeper to snag the checkered flag.

James Davidson has a solid record in road races that feature less than elite fields, finishing fourth and eighth in 2017 and 2018. He’s another sleeper that could merit a small bet.

Daniel Hemric has come in third at The Roval in each of the last two years, and this time around he has a Kaulig Racing car. This team’s equipment has won at The Roval for three years in a row.

Sam Mayer almost tasted victory last week on a superspeedway, and he also excels on road courses. Among the regular Xfinity Series drivers, he has the fourth-best Dietrich Data rating – which synthesizes all of the laps a driver completes).

Brandon Jones has completed 31 road races, so he has plenty of experience. How about his results? Well, sometimes he surprises with his terrific finishes – and sometimes he’s irredeemably mediocre. We don’t know which one we will get this week, which is why he’s a dark horse.
