The NASCAR Cup Series season continues on Sunday at Michigan International Speedway, which will host the 2025 Firekeepers Casino 400 at 2 p.m. ET. Tyler Reddick is the defending champion, ending a run of nine straight wins by Ford drivers. Ryan Blaney is Ford’s top betting choice to win on Sunday, as he won this race in 2021 and is coming off a win in Nashville last week. Kyle Larson is the +525 favorite (risk $100 to win $525) in the 2025 Firekeepers Casino 400 odds, while Denny Hamlin and Blaney are both +650 in the 2025 NASCAR at Michigan odds.
William Byron (+800) and Reddick (+850) are the only other drivers in the 2025 Firekeepers Casino 400 starting lineup with single-digit odds. Which drivers should you include in your 2025 NASCAR at Michigan bets? Before entering any 2025 Firekeepers Casino 400 picks, NASCAR DFS lineups on sites like DraftKings and FanDuel, or locking in NASCAR props on sites like PrizePicks, Sleeper Fantasy, and Underdog Fantasy, be sure to see the latest 2025 NASCAR at Michigan predictions from SportsLine’s proven projection model.
Developed by daily Fantasy pro and SportsLine predictive data engineer Mike McClure, this proprietary NASCAR prediction model simulates every race 10,000 times, taking into account factors such as track history and recent results.
The model began its 2025 season by calling Chase Elliott to win for a +300 payout at the Clash at Bowman Gray and was also high on Byron as a +2000 longshot at Daytona. Then it predicted Kyle Larson’s win in Miami for a +350 payout and Christopher Bell’s +600 triumph in the NASCAR All-Star Race. In 2024, it nailed Larson to win in Las Vegas for a 21-5 sports betting payout and predicted Denny Hamlin’s wins in Bristol at 5-1 and Richmond at 17-4.
It also impressively nailed five of Larson’s wins during his historic season in 2021. All told, the model has nailed a whopping 20 winners since 2021, including nine in 2023 and three in the first seven races last season. Anyone who followed its lead on betting apps and sportsbooks on those NASCAR picks could have seen huge returns. New users also have the opportunity to take advantage of the latest Bet365 promo code, DraftKings promo code and Fanatics Sportsbook promo code.

Top 2025 Firekeepers Casino 400 predictions
For the 2025 Firekeepers Casino 400, we can tell you the model is high on Joey Logano, even though he’s a +1600 longshot in the latest 2025 NASCAR at Michigan odds. He’s a target for anyone looking for a huge payday. The defending NASCAR Cup Series champion likely punched his ticket to the postseason with a win in Texas earlier this season, but he’s still fighting for points and moved up to eighth in the NASCAR standings with a fourth-place run in Nashville last week.
It was Logano’s second top-five finish of the season and now he’ll look to build off that at a track where he’s had a lot of success. He’s a three-time winner at Michigan International Speedway and has finished top 10 in 18 of his 28 career starts there. Ford’s have won nine of the last 10 races in Michigan and Penske Racing has a lot of momentum after putting two of their cars into the top five last week. BetMGM has the best pricing on Logano as the outright winner, but you can also get him at +1500 and bet $5 to get $200 in bonus bets if your first bet wins with the latest FanDuel promo code.
The model has also revealed a surprising NASCAR prop for Sunday: Carson Hocevar finishes top 10 for a -112 payout. The 2024 NASCAR Rookie of the Year is a rising star and has already recorded a pair of second-place finishes this season. His latest runner-up finish came at Nashville last week, giving him some momentum heading into his home race.
The Michigan native is seeking his first Cup Series victory, and he will also drive in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series race on Saturday. Hocevar finished second in Atlanta for Spire Motorsports earlier this season, holding the most second-place finishes in Spire’s Cup Series history. He told reporters that his “home racetrack is a type of track that we feel is our strongest,” so he is a solid bet to finish inside the top 10.
