The field has been whittled from 16 drivers to 12 and the 2024 NASCAR Playoffs continue on Sunday with the 2024 Hollywood Casino 400 at Kansas Speedway. The green flag drops at 3 p.m. ET and the race is scheduled for 267 laps around this 1.5-mile speedway. After a dominant win last week at Bristol, Kyle Larson is the +450 favorite (risk $100 to win $450) in the latest NASCAR at Kansas odds. All three of Larson's Hendrick Motorsports teammates are also still alive in the NASCAR postseason.
Larson is followed by Christopher Bell (+700), who claimed pole position, Denny Hamlin (+750), Tyler Reddick (+1000) and William Byron (+100) on the 2024 Hollywood Casino 400 odds board. Before making any 2024 NASCAR at Kansas predictions, entering any NASCAR DFS lineups on sites like DraftKings and FanDuel, or locking in NASCAR props on sites like PrizePicks, Sleeper Fantasy, and Underdog Fantasy, be sure to see the latest 2024 Hollywood Casino 400 picks from SportsLine's proven projection model.
Developed by daily Fantasy pro and SportsLine predictive data engineer Mike McClure, this proprietary NASCAR prediction model simulates every race 10,000 times, taking into account factors such as track history and recent results.
It called its first winner of the 2024 season with Kyle Larson in Las Vegas for a 21-5 payout and predicted Denny Hamlin's wins in Bristol at 5-1 and Richmond at 17-4. It also impressively nailed five of Larson's wins during his historic season in 2021. All told, the model has nailed a whopping 18 winners since 2021, including nine last year and three in the first seven races this season. Anyone who followed its lead on those NASCAR picks saw huge returns.

Top 2024 Hollywood Casino 400 predictions
For the 2024 Hollywood Casino 400, the model is high on Ty Gibbs, even though he's a 13-1 longshot in the latest 2024 NASCAR at Kansas odds. He's a target for anyone looking for a huge payday. Gibbs was officially eliminated from the 2024 NASCAR Playoffs after a 15th-place run last week in the Bristol Night Race but the 21-year-old has still had a season to remember.
He made the postseason in just his second year as a full-time NASCAR Cup Series driver and has had seven top-five finishes already this year, including a couple at speedways. Gibbs came from 36th to finish 14th in the fall race at Kansas last season and he was a winner on this 1.5-mile oval in the Xfinity Series in 2021.
Another massive shocker: Bell, one of the Vegas favorites at 7-1, fails to crack the top five. There are far better values in the 2024 Hollywood Casino 400 starting lineup. Unlike two of his Joe Gibbs Racing teammates, Gibbs and Martin Truex Jr., Bell is still alive in the title hunt.
However, he hasn't been a serious threat to win of late, leading just one lap in his last six races despite recording four top-five finishes during that span. Bell has never won at Kansas despite starting on the pole in three of the last five NASCAR Cup Series races contested there.
