Brad Keselowski is the defending GEICO champion, his sixth career win at Talladega. Keselowski avoided a multi-car crash on the last lap to take the checkered flag.

Keselowski is tied with Dale Earnhardt, Jr. and Jeff Gordon for second place all-time in career wins at Talladega, trailing the late Dale Earnhardt (10).

Ryan Blaney (+1200, bet $10 to win $130) is one of the pre-race favorites at FOX Bet.

"He’s got a good history with superspeedways and has been a model of consistency this season," FOX Bet sports trader AJ Devine said. "Although he’s yet to win a race, he’s got four top-five finishes in nine starts, landing him just three points behind Chase Elliott in the overall Cup standings."

* odds as of 4/24/2022

A driver with decent value to bettors is Ricky Stenhouse Jr. (+3300), Devine said.

"He hasn’t had the best season so far — just one top-10 finish — but he won this race in 2017 and generally performs well in superspeedway races," Devine explained. "I think there’s some value in picking him to win at +3300. If you want to be a bit more conservative, we’ve also got him at +350 to finish in the top five."

PICK: Ricky Stenhouse Jr. (+3300 at FOX Bet) to win (bet $10 to win $340)

ALSO: Stenhouse Jr. top-five finish (+350 at FOX Bet) (bet $10 to win $45)
