The 49ers are viewed as the NFC team to beat this year, which is not surprising considering that they have advanced to the NFC Championship Game four times in the previous five seasons. The Niners aren’t just the NFC favourites either; there is some disagreement among sportsbooks regarding who the top Super Bowl 59 favourites are—some list San Francisco as co-favorites alongside defending champion Kansas City, while others give the Niners slightly longer odds than the Chiefs.
The 49ers and Chiefs’ odds at four of the best sportsbooks are shown below:
Chiefs +600; 49ers +600 on FanDuel
Chiefs +500, 49ers +600 in DraftKings
49ers +550 and Chiefs +550 at bet365
Caesars: 49ers +625; Chiefs +575.
The Chiefs’ marginally better chances at DK and Caesars are largely due to the AFC’s strength and depth.

The phrase “Super Bowl or bust” may not fully capture the high hopes for San Francisco this season.
The majority of 2023 saw the Niners dominate; it was their fourth season since 2019 with ten or more regular-season victories.
were had three frustrating defeats in a row to the Browns, Vikings, and Bengals in October, which were sandwiched between a 5-0 start to 2023 and a six-game winning streak from Weeks 10-15. They went on to win two close games at home in the playoffs to get to Super Bowl 58.
With the majority of last year’s outstanding roster still in place (San Francisco finished second in opponent-adjusted total DVOA in 2023 due to its No. 1 offence and No. 4 defence), it would probably take a spate of injuries and/or locker room problems to bring this club to an untimely end in 2024.
