It’s the case at every superspeedway that anything can happen and anyone could win.
And fans and bettors might want to keep that in mind when the NASCAR Cup Series heads to legendary Talladega for the Jack Link’s 500 on Sunday, April 26 (3 p.m. ET, FOX).
When it comes to winning, Tyler Reddick has done more of that this year than any other driver. He’s gotten into Victory Lane in five of the first nine races. Two of those wins came at Daytona and Atlanta, both superspeedways.
Will Reddick snag the checkered flag again at ‘Dega?
Let’s take a look at the odds at DraftKings Sportsbook as of April 26.

Here’s what to know about the oddsboard:
The Favorite: Can Tyler Reddick’s hot hand be stopped — especially now that he’s sitting on the pole at Talladega? In addition to winning at Daytona and Atlanta, the driver of the No. 45 Toyota has wins this season at COTA, Darlington and Kansas. He’s led 199 laps this year, has 74 stage points and 457 points total. In this race last year, he started 26th but finished 14th.
Ones to Watch: Ryan Blaney and Joey Logano were the early favorites for Talladega but now Blaney is tied with Reddick at +850 and Logano sits at +1200. Both drivers, though, have three career wins in Cup at the track. In this race in the spring of 2025, Blaney had a DNF and Logano was disqualified after being penalized for a spoiler violation in post-race inspection. The pair fared a little better when the series went back to Talladega last fall, with Logano finishing 16th and Blaney placing 23rd.
