Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Super Bowl!

The biggest sporting event of the year takes place on Sunday, February 11, and is renowned for giving people the opportunity to bet on almost anything and everything before, during and after the game! That includes the coin toss — that’s right, something that comes down to blind luck is available to bet on with all the major sportsbooks across America! You can kickstart your Super Bowl betting night with a winner before the game has even kicked off! The coin toss is just one of many Super Bowl Prop Bets, and we’re going to break down the odds and our best bet.

How To Bet On The Super Bowl Coin Toss

Odds are available for the Super Bowl 58 coin toss from nearly every sportsbook in America, and as it’s a 50/50 decision, Caesars Sportsbook has each of them available at +100 odds. That means that if you bet $10 on the result to be heads and it is correct, you will win $10 along with the return of your $10 stake. So you’ll get $20 back in total. However, some sportsbooks give worse than 50/50 odds, with FanDuel Sportsbook currently offering -104 odds on both heads and tails. All major sportsbooks carry odds for the Super Bowl coin toss, also including, DraftKings Sportsbook, BetMGM, BetRivers and Bet365, so make sure you shop around for the best odds.

Super Bowl Coin Toss Previous Results & Trends

In the history of the Super Bowl, the coin toss has resulted in tails being called 29 times while heads is right behind it at 28. Tails has dominated in recent years, with that result appearing in 7 of the past 10 Super Bowls.

Something else to note is that last season, the Chiefs became the first team since the Seahawks in 2014 to win both the coin toss and Super Bowl. Prior to that Kansas City win, we had seen the coin toss winner go on to lose the Super Bowl for 8 straight years.

Below is a list of the Super Bowl coin toss results since 2013:

2023, Super Bowl 57: Chiefs, Tails
2022, Super Bowl 56: Bengals, Heads
2021, Super Bowl 55: Chiefs, Heads

2020, Super Bowl 54: 49ers, Tails
2019, Super Bowl 53: Rams, Tails
2018, Super Bowl 52: Patriots, Heads
2017, Super Bowl 51: Falcons, Tails
2016, Super Bowl 50: Panthers, Tails
2015, Super Bowl 49: Seahawks, Tails
2014, Super Bowl 48: Seahawks, Tails
2013, Super Bowl 47: Ravens, Heads

2023 Super Bowl coin toss picks and predictions

Betting on the coin toss is a game of chance, as it is literally a coin flip, but that doesn’t mean you can’t have an informed view on what you think will happen. Last year we nailed it by selecting tails, as heads had been the call in the 2 years prior. However, bearing in mind that tails has been the call in 7 of the last 10 Super Bowls, we are going with heads to turn the tables and be the result. That would also mean that each side will have been called 29 times in the 58 Super Bowls.
