Those who don't remember the last time the Eagles and Patriots met in a Super Bowl 13 years ago likely know only that the Patriots won by a mere three points. But those who do recall Super Bowl XXXIX know this: it wasn't quite that close.

When the 52nd Super Bowl kicked off on Sunday there was s a good chance of it being another close game, at least on the scoreboard, just by virtue of the Patriots being in it. The Belichick-Brady era Pats always play close games in Super Bowls. With potentially their sixth Lombardi Trophy on the line, the Pats and Eagles kicked off at 6:30 p.m. ET Sunday.

Following Conference Championship Sunday in which they needed another Brady comeback to avoid getting upset by the Jaguars, the Patriots opened as 5.5-point favorites (and some sportsbooks had them as high as 6). But the Patriots are no longer quite that revered by Vegas books. Some heavy action on the Eagles shifted the line to 4.5 by late last week, and by Monday, some Vegas sportsbooks started offering Patriots -4. But that's where it has stayed ever since.

Here's everything you need to know for the 2018 Super Bowl, including who will be performing at halftime and who will be singing the national anthem as well as how to watch the big game.

So which side of the Super Bowl line do you need to be all over? Visit SportsLine now to see which side of Patriots-Eagles you need to jump on, plus what X-factor determines the outcome, all from a Vegas legend who's 9-3 on Eagles' games.

Who will perform at halftime?

Justin Timberlake will handle Super Bowl LII halftime duties! The former NSYNC star, who has morphed into one of the most diverse and dynamic performers in music and movies, will be looking to end up somewhere high on this list. Timberlake hasn't been on the stage for the Super Bowl since his famous wardrobe malfunction with Janet Jackson after the 2003 season. More than a decade later, he returns.

"America the Beautiful''

Leslie Odom Jr., who won a best actor Tony Award in 2016 for originating the role of Aaron Burr in "Hamilton'' will perform the song at Super Bowl LII.
