The majority of the postseason contenders in the 2021 NASCAR Cup Series Playoffs have only two opportunities remaining to compete for the final three spots in the field, including this week's event at Kansas Speedway. The green flag drops on the Hollywood Casino 400 on Sunday at 3 p.m. ET. This is the final 1.5-mile track race on the 2021 Cup schedule, and two drivers who have won a Playoff race at Kansas have went on to win the Cup title.  

Martin Truex Jr., listed at 17-2 odds in the latest Hollywood Casino 400 odds from Caesars Sportsbook, is the only active driver to have won the Kansas Playoff race on his way to winning the Cup championship, as he pulled off the feat in 2017. As the series heads to Kansas, though, it certainly appears Kyle Larson, listed at 9-4 odds, will be hard for any other driver to overtake during the rest of the postseason. Larson became the first driver to advance to the Championship 4 Round with his win at Texas last week. He has eight wins and is aiming to become just the second driver since 2000 to reach double digit victories in a season. 

Before making any 2021 Hollywood Casino 400 picks, you NEED to see what SportsLine's Micah Roberts has to say. Roberts, a former Vegas bookmaker, was the first to offer expanded NASCAR betting, and now hands out NASCAR winners to his followers on SportsLine. Roberts is the nation's premier NASCAR betting expert, and his top pick, Chase Elliott, won the Jockey Made in America 250 in July at 2-1 odds. 

He also correctly predicted the Coca-Cola 600 winner in the final event of May, hitting Larson's win at 11-2 odds. The previous week, he was on point at the EchoPark Texas Grand Prix, targeting Elliott as the winner at 8-5 odds. 

Now, Roberts has analyzed Sunday's Hollywood Casino 400 starting grid. We can tell you he is fading Martin Truex Jr., even though he has won twice at Kansas. In fact, he says Truex barely cracks his top 10!

Instead, Roberts is high on a long shot who may make a strong bid for his first Cup series win! This driver is being underestimated by oddsmakers, and anyone who bets on him could hit it BIG. You ABSOLUTELY need to see who it is before making any picks.

So who wins the Hollywood Casino 400 2021? And which enormous long shot stuns NASCAR? ... Join SportsLine right now to see Micah Roberts' full projected leaderboard for the Hollywood Casino 400, all from the nation's premier NASCAR betting expert!
