Justin Allgaier Primed for NASCAR Xfinity Series Championship Race; Connor Zilisch Earns Top Odds

While NASCAR Xfinity Series regular-season champion Connor Zilisch continues to garner most of the attention entering Saturday night’s Championship 4 race at Phoenix Raceway, Justin Allgaier appears primed to pull off an upset.

The circuit’s No. 2-ranked playoff pilot, Allgaier, also stands second in the regular-season standings. Can Allgaier shake off his second-half slump? The reigning champion posted three wins this season, but none since Nashville Superspeedway on May 31.

The 1-mile desert oval could be a venue that favors Allgaier. In 30 career starts at Phoenix, he compiled two wins 12, 12 top-five finishes and 20 top 10s.

“We’ve stayed working on Phoenix,” Allgaier said at Martinsville. “We’ve been lucky enough to focus on what we’ve needed to focus on and go to Phoenix. It’s cool for me because all four cars at JR Motorsports are going back with stuff that I’ve run before. All the setups are derived from where we’ve been at, and I know the strengths and weaknesses of all the different options of what we do as a company.”

Zilisch (+240) and Allgaier (+300) drew the top odds to win Saturday night’s Championship 4 race, according to FanDuel Sportsbook.

Three wins so far this year for @J_Allgaier.
