Specials offered on Super Bowl LIX including classic Gatorade colour market
This weekend sees the Kansas City Chiefs take on the Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl LIX with anticipation building for one of the biggest nights on the sporting calendar with the Chiefs on the brink of history.
It's not just the classic winner markets that can be bet on in this game though with UK Betting Sites now offering a whole host of novelty markets around the match.
One of the more traditional novelty markets is the colour of the Gatorade shower that is given to the winning coach, with the winners of the match usually pouring Gatorade over their head coach.
The Chiefs have won the last two Super Bowls and in those years covered head coach Andy Reid with Purple Gatorade and it's no surprise to see Purple lead the way once again in the betting odds.
Paddy Power's latest market sees Purple the 15/8 favourite to be the Gatorade shower colour for the third consecutive year with an implied probability of 34.8% given.
| Colour of Gatorade Poured on Winning Coach | Odds | Probability |
|---|---|---|
| Purple | 15/8 | 34.8% |
| Yellow/Lime or Green | 23/10 | 30.3% |
| Orange | 4/1 | 20.0% |
| Blue | 13/2 | 13.3% |
| Red/Pink | 15/2 | 11.8% |
| Water/Clear | 12/1 | 7.7% |
