A supercomputer has predicted the results of Super Bowl 59 ahead of Sunday’s rematch between the Philadelphia Eagles and Kansas City Chiefs.
The computer’s calculations should leave KC fans happy as they suggest that the AFC outfit will win their third straight Super Bowl, handing them a 58.4 percent chance to lift the Lombardi Trophy in New Orleans.
As far as scorelines go, the machine is going with a marginal 30-27 result, touting it as the likeliest final score.
The average predicted score is 25.8 to 23.5 for the Chiefs.
It’s expected that this year’s big game will be a close one as the Chiefs haven’t scored more than 32 points all season, which is what they logged in the AFC Championship Game against the Buffalo Bills last month.
The Chiefs have only won by more than two scores one time all season, doing so when they beat the Pittsburgh Steelers 29-10 in Week 17.
Supercomputer Also Picks Super Bowl 59 MVP
The supercomputer has also predicted that Patrick Mahomes will likely be the Super Bowl 59 MVP, which would mark his fourth capture of the prestigious accolade. The Chiefs quarterback has been given a 47.2 percent chance to win the award.
Eagles stars Saquon Barkley and Jalen Hurts have the next-best percentages at 22.6 and 14.8, respectively.
Travis Kelce has the fourth-best at just 3.3 percent, while A.J. Brown is the only other player on either team to have odds north of 1.8 percent.
Meanwhile, Chris Jones has the highest odds among defensive players at .9 percent.
Super Bowl 59 is scheduled for 6:30 p.m. ET on February 9 and will be hosted at Caesars Super Dome in New Orleans.
