NASCAR Bass Pro Shops Night Race Picks, Predictions

The NASCAR playoffs head to Tennessee on Saturday under the lights at Bristol Motor Speedway for the Bass Pro Shops Night Race. After this race, four of the 16 playoff drivers will be eliminated as the round of 16 comes to a conclusion.

The first two winners of the playoff races were Joey Logano at Atlanta and Chris Buescher at Watkins Glen last week to guarantee a spot in the next round.

Denny Hamlin not only won last year's Bass Pro Shops Night Race at Bristol, but also captured the checkered flag in March's Food City 500 at this track.

Not surprisingly, Hamlin is listed as the favorite at +350 odds to win on Saturday night as he tries to rebound after finishing 24th at Atlanta and 23rd at Watkins Glen in the first two playoff races.

Kyle Larson sits at 6/1 odds along with Christopher Bell as Larson has also not been sharp through two playoff races, which included crashing out at Atlanta two weeks ago. Larson won this race back in 2021, while Buescher was crowned the champion in 2022.
