Harvick owns Phoenix and also wins the past two weeks

Can Kevin Harvick win for the ninth time at Phoenix?

As a Vegas bookmaker, Micah Roberts was the first to offer expanded NASCAR betting. Now he hands out NASCAR winners to his followers.

Two weeks ago at Atlanta Motor Speedway, Roberts told SportsLine readers to jump on Kevin Harvick, who had the same 9/2 odds as Martin Truex Jr. and Kyle Larson. Harvick dominated, leading for 181 of 325 laps and cruising to victory by 2.69 seconds. Roberts was all over Harvick again last week at Las Vegas. A 5/1 choice along with Truex and Kyle Busch, Harvick delivered another lopsided win.

Roberts' uncanny picks come as no surprise. In the 2017 NASCAR playoffs, Roberts picked nine of the 10 winners. In 2016, Roberts told readers to back Denny Hamlin at 15/1 in the Daytona 500. The result? Hamlin edged Martin Truex Jr. for the checkered flag. This is the same Roberts who nailed Hamlin at 40/1 to win at Watkins Glen later that year.

With the TicketGuardian 500 set for Sunday at 3:30 p.m. ET at ISM Raceway at Phoenix, Roberts has analyzed the entire field and released his Top 20 finishers in order. We can tell you he's not high on Truex, who's tied for the third-lowest odds at 8/1; Roberts says Truex will barely crack the Top 10. Roberts also loves a massive underdog who's already won twice on this track... Join SportsLine now to see the full projected TicketGuardian 500 leaderboard, and see which long shot stuns the racing world, all from the nation's premier NASCAR betting expert who's gunning for his third straight winner!

Here is Roberts' writeup:

No driver has ever dominated Phoenix's ISM Raceway like Kevin Harvick has throughout his career, and he comes into Sunday's TicketGuardian 500 looking to win three consecutive races for the first time in his career.

Based on Harvick's track-record eight Phoenix wins and dominating performances the past two weeks at Atlanta and Las Vegas, he comes in as the heavy 9-to-4 favorite to win.
