TheLines.com: Rams open as a consensus 4-point favorite over Bengals in Super Bowl

TheLines.com: Travon Walker the favorite to go No. 1 in NFL Draft

 

Fueled by a fourth-quarter comeback to beat the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday, the Los Angeles Rams have claimed favorite status to win Super Bowl 56, according to analysts TheLines, which tracks odds in the U.S. regulated sports betting market.

The Rams are favored by 4 points to beat the Cincinnati Bengals in the Super Bowl on Feb. 12. The over/under total has been set at 49.5 points, according to a consensus of the nation’s largest legal online sportsbooks — including DraftKings, FanDuel, BetMGM, BetRivers, Caesars, and PointsBet.

“These playoff games have been as thrilling as any in NFL history and the stage is set for a similar Super Bowl, despite a matchup that not many expected,” said Brett Collson, lead analyst for TheLines.com. “From Tampa Bay to Green Bay to Kansas City, the favorites dropped. This matchup is compelling from many viewpoints, including the quarterback battle between Joe Burrow and Matthew Stafford will draw a lot of attention.”

Stafford played for 12 seasons with the perpetually struggling Detroit Lions before an offseason trade sent him to the Rams prior to this season. With a collection of veteran talent like Aaron Donald, Odell Beckham Jr., Von Miller and Cooper Kupp surrounding him, Stafford has the Rams in the franchise’s fifth Super Bowl. The Rams are 1-4 in their history, with the lone win coming in the 1999 season against Tennessee.

The Rams opened the season at +1500 to win the Super Bowl and now find themselves favored to win and playing on their home field at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles. This is the second straight season that the Super Bowl is being played at the home stadium of one of the participants: The Tampa Bay Buccaneers beat the Kansas City Chiefs last year at Tampa’s Raymond James Stadium.

Only two teams — the Houston Texans and Detroit Lions — had longer preseason odds to win the Super Bowl than the Bengals, who opened the season at +15000. And Cincinnati was a 150-1 shot at BetMGM after a Week 2 loss to the Chicago Bears. Yet Cincinnati knocked off the Las Vegas Raiders on Wild Card Weekend and ousted top-seeded Tennessee in the Divisional round. Burrow and the Bengals then went to Kansas City and shocked the 7.5-point-favorite Chiefs on Sunday to record the franchise’s first Super Bowl appearance since the 1988 season.

Cincinnati is 0-2 all-time in Super Bowls, with both losses coming to the San Francisco 49ers. The Bengals are one of 12 NFL franchises to have never won the championship game. Burrow is seeking to become the first player in football history to win the Heisman Trophy, a college national championship, and the Super Bowl.

The consensus point spreads for the Super Bowl, as of Jan. 30:

  • Cincinnati Bengals vs. Los Angeles Rams (-4); over/under 49.5.

  • Kansas City Chiefs (+500)
  • Tampa Bay Buccaneers (+600)

Breaking New Ground in Brazil: Blitzcrown’s Crash Games Now GLI Certified

Blitzcrown, MVG’s pioneering games studio, has secured Brazilian Certification as well as GLI-19 Certification from GLI(Gaming Laboratories International) for its industry-changing three Crash titles. This landmark achievement marks a significant milestone in the company’s expansion into Brazil’s thriving online gaming market, positioning Blitzcrown at the forefront of the region’s rapidly evolving iGaming landscape.

The license comes at an important time for Brazil’s gaming sector, following the launch of the new licensing regime that started on January 1, 2025. The regulatory framework, signed into law in December 2023, has transformed the industry’s prospects.

The certification encompasses 3 innovative crash games: Crash, Fast Crash, and Twin Crash. This strategic milestone establishes Blitzcrown as the premier provider of certified Crash games in the Brazilian market, demonstrating the company’s unwavering commitment to regulatory excellence and gaming integrity. With the GLI-19 and Brazil certification process successfully concluded in March, Blitzcrown has solidified its position as an industry pioneer in this dynamic and emerging market.

Crash games are a recent addition to the global iGaming market, featuring the dynamic evolution of real-time multipliers and immediate reward structures. Blitzcrown has stood out by establishing groundbreaking game mechanisms that offer different and exciting gameplay experiences. Standard Crash provides players with a standard multiplier-based gaming experience, and Fast Crash is optimized for users seeking quick, intense multiplier experiences. The Twin Crash is an original format allowing players to place simultaneous bets on two separate multipliers.

Building on this momentum, Blitzcrown has announced plans to expand its certified portfolio with two additional versions of its innovative Plinko games, demonstrating the company’s strategic commitment to market expansion. This forward-looking initiative underscores Blitzcrown’s dedication to continuous innovation and sustainable growth in the regulated gaming markets.

Blitzcrown is MVG’s edge-game studio focused on pushing game ideas beyond their norms through innovative and non-traditional gaming experiences. The studio has been particularly recognized for its groundbreaking approaches in various game categories, including its successful Crash and Plinko series.

George Cho from MVG said: “This GLI certification testifies to Blitzcrown’s unwavering commitment to offering top-quality, fair gaming systems. We are well placed to take advantage of Brazil’s exciting new regulatory environment and the vast growth potential of the online gaming industry.”

QTech Games sharpens its LatAm focus with MINCETUR licence in Peru

QTech Games sharpens its LatAm focus with MINCETUR licence in Peru

 

New certification for emerging-markets leader arrives ahead of key industry summit in Sao Paulo and awards recognition

QTech Games, the leading game aggregator for emerging markets, has had its platform and games successfully approved for the Peruvian market, demonstrating that its premier B2B platform and all-encompassing content conforms to the latest legislative updates to enhance and regulate Peru’s local gaming environment.

Peru’s Ministry of Foreign Commerce and Tourism (MINCETUR) has now issued an online gaming licence to QTech Games, whereby all its platform products and games are now deemed legally permitted. This includes its new software service for retail, QTech Hybrid, which allows land-based partners to scale their operations online. QTech Hybrid simplifies transactions by enabling deposits, withdrawals and gameplay while allowing access to players both in-shop and on personal devices.

This breakthrough hybrid solution has quickly won clients and awards in the comparably fragmented African market (most recently in March for Best Innovation at AGE Lagos), and now promises to do likewise across LatAm, where QTech Games has already signed several major clients for both its aggregation platform and its QTech Hybrid solution. This activity has seen it again nominated for Best Aggregator at the SiGMA Americas Awards, which kickstart the SiGMA Americas summit (7-10 April) next week, as the igaming world converges on Sao Paulo for a must-attend conference in another of QTech Games’ “focus markets” for 2025.

Philip Doftvik, QTech Games’ CEO, said: “It’s fantastic to have certified our aggregation platform in Peru via MINCETUR – and I’m pleased to say we have more such approvals pending across the continent. We attended fantastic events in Rio and, more recently, SAGSE 2025 in Buenos Aires – and anticipate more of the same at SiGMA Americas in Sao Paulo next week, where we’re also thrilled to have been shortlisted for Best Aggregator at their LatAm Awards. Given the venue, Brazil will be dominating the discussion for many at SiGMA Sao Paulo. However, we’ll also be looking beyond Brazilian borders this year, and are already active in Mexico, Chile, Colombia and Paraguay. We know our QTech Hybrid solution will work very well wherever we put a pin on the LatAm map.”

QTech Games delegates will be present at five more LatAm summits in 2025, with SiGMA Americas (7 April) the next port of call – followed by GAT Expo Cartagena (28 April), SBC Americas (13 May), Peru Gaming Show (18 June) and GAT Expo Mexico (28 Aug).
