While the Daytona 500 is the official kickoff of the 2023 NASCAR Cup Series season, the unofficial beginning takes place two weeks prior at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum.

The latest 2023 Clash at the Coliseum odds from Caesars Sportsbook list four 8-1 co-favorites: Kyle Larson, Chase Elliott, Kyle Busch and defending champion, Joey Logano.

For the 2023 Clash at the Coliseum, we can tell you Bobbitt and Greco are backing Chase Elliott to finish better than Kyle Larson (-114).

"Passing other cars will be a huge challenge on Sunday," Bobbitt and Greco said. "The easiest way for our driver to win the head-to-head matchup is to qualify better (math). In our dataset consisting of the 2022 Busch Clash and both Martinsville/New Hampshire races, Chase Elliott dominated all the important metrics. His average starting position is 5.0 compared to Larson's 6.3. Elliott also averages 21.3 more fast laps per race than Larson (39.3 vs 18.0) and 46 more laps led (63.0 vs 17.0). Bet the 2020 champion over the 2021 champion in this head-to-head."

Bobbitt and Greco have also locked in FOUR outright winner plays on longshots going off higher than 30-1! Be sure to see their picks before locking in any NASCAR picks of your own.
