2024 Wurth 400 – Expert pick

Odds provided by FanDuel Sportsbook; access USA TODAY Sports Scores and Sports Betting Odds hub for a full list. Lines last updated at 4:25 a.m. ET.

MARTIN TRUEX JR. (+650) has racked up 4 wins at Dover Motor Speedway, including his 1st career Cup win back on June 4, 2007.

Truex has been humming along lately, especially in qualifying. However, while he rattled off 5 consecutive top-10 finishes from March 3-31, he has been 11th or lower in his past 3 starts. Still, he should be rejuvenated in what has been his unofficial favorite track.

2024 Wurth 400 – Contender

JOEY LOGANO (+2500) was unable to take advantage of his 7th starting spot at Talladega last week, tumbling to 19th to finish. He has been a little bit erratic this season, but Logano is worth a roll of the dice with some rather long odds.

Logano has never won at Dover, but he has 5 top-5 finishes and 15 top-10 runs with a respectable 14.5 AFP. For the opportunity to potentially multiply your initial wager by 25 times, take a chance on Sliced Bread.

2024 Wurth 400 – Props and matchbets

ALEX BOWMAN (+102) over Ross Chastain (-128) in a matchbet is the way to go.

While Bowman has a rather ordinary 17.8 AFP, he has won at Dover back on May 16, 2021. On the flip side, Chastain has a dismal 22.7 AFP in 9 Cup starts at Dover, while posting 2 top-5 finishes and 1 DNF.

KYLE BUSCH (-118) over Tyler Reddick (-108) is a decent matchbet play, too, especially since Rowdy starts out on the pole. Reddick has a 15.2 AFP in 5 Cup starts at the track, and he has never led a lap at the Delaware track.
