The NASCAR AdventHealth 400 Cup series race is set for 2:00 p.m. ET on Sunday, April 19 at Kansas Speedway. 

Five different drivers have captured the checkered flag in the past five NASCAR events. Sunday’s race is on Kansas Speedway's 1.5-mile long track, the third event at an intermediate track already this season (Darlington and Las Vegas).

Kyle Larson captured last May’s event in Kansas City, his second consecutive victory at this event. 

After winning last weekend, Ty Gibbs will look to become the first driver to win consecutive races since Tyler Reddick accomplished that feat with three straight victories to kick off the season. Gibbs won at Bristol last Sunday, but has not emerged victorious at Kansas in his short career. 

Below, we'll break down our AdventHealth 400 predictions and picks for Sunday’s race, including key NASCAR Cup Series driver picks for PrizePicks.
