LAS VEGAS - The Kansas City Chiefs and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are set to face off in a solid Super Bowl matchup.
The sportsbooks are offering all kinds of odds on the game, and one set that really stuck out is odds on whether or not a Field Goal will be scored in the second, third, and fourth quarters of the matchup.
For this betting breakdown, those Super Bowl odds will be the main focus.
Field Goal Scored in 2nd Quarter?
- Yes -250
- No +195
The quarter with the best odds for a FG score is the second quarter, where scoring a FG is -250, and not scoring a FG is +195.
The Chiefs scored two second-quarter field goals against the Browns and no second-quarter field goals against the Bills. The Bucs scored one second-quarter FG against Washington, two against New Orleans, and none against Green Bay.
In other words, these two teams have put up a lot of field goals in the second quarter, and it makes sense that the odds are so slanted towards that direction.
Field Goal Scored in 3rd Quarter?
- Yes -125
- No -105
The Chiefs scored one third-quarter field goal against the Browns, and notched an additional one against the Bills. The Bucs have not scored a third-quarter field goal in any of their playoff games this season.
This is the quarter with the least field goals scored in it of the three available, and the odds represent that fairly well.

Field Goal Scored in 4th Quarter?
- Yes -175
- No +145
The Chiefs have not scored a fourth-quarter field goal in the playoffs so far this season.
The Bucs scored two fourth-quarter FG’s against Washington, one fourth-quarter FG against New Orleans, and one against Green Bay.
The Bucs have scored four fourth-quarter field goals to the Chiefs’ 0, and a lot of that is due to game script. The Bucs have been ahead but not prohibitively so in most of their games, requiring them to put in work to kill clock and kick field goals to ice the game.
The Chiefs dominated the Bills, and didn’t need to score a fourth-quarter field goal in that matchup, and simply had to run out the clock against the Browns.
Most NFL betting fans are aware of the power of the Chiefs' offense, and how well they perform on Sunday will be the biggest determinant of what the game looks like.
Game script will dictate what happens with these bets on Super Bowl Sunday, and if these odds are available at halftime it could be a decent chance to circle back to the sportsbooks and take a look at them.
Live betting is always a solid way to hedge wagers like this as well, so if one takes any of these bets pregame they could hedge with live wagers during the Super Bowl.
