NASCAR at Phoenix: Odds, prediction, sleepers, drivers to watch for TicketGuardian 500

Kevin Harvick is off to a slower start than last year, but it doesn’t in any manner damage how dangerous he’ll probably be at ISM Raceway at Phoenix on Sunday for its TicketGuardian 500.

Harvick has two career wins at the one-mile track and ends in the top 10 in 65.6 percent of his races there. He is undoubtedly the favorite to win.

However Kyle Busch cannot be underestimated with just two career wins in Phoenix and seven 7s in his last seven races. He has finished in six of the seven efforts there in the top 4.

This race will be a duel between the two and also whoever gets out ahead at the onset of the phase will be the favorite to win. This time we are likely to select Busch to come out the victor, as he might have picked up the win last week had it not been for a speeding penalty on pit road.

The TicketGuardian 500 can be viewed Sunday at 3:30 p.m. ET on FOX.
