After a dramatic Sunday we finally know the combatants of Superbowl XLIII - it's Pittsburgh Steelers v Arizona Cardinals in the showpiece final on February 1.

The early betting puts Pittsburgh as the [1.42] favourites with Arizona at [3.35] underdogs by Betfair customers.

Those Superbowl odds reflect the AFC representative's consistent form throughout the season - the Steelers have only lost four regular season games, all to teams who made the play-off action.

Arizona's path to the big game has been far more unexpected. The Cards went 9-7 in the regular season, enduring a campaign that saw some very heavy defeats, and only making the post-season action thanks to the weakness of their divisional rivals.

But since there, they've beaten every team in their path to make the final.

Both teams have been matched at three figures in Betfair's Superbowl winner market - Pittsburgh at [100.0] and Arizona at [130.0] - as the season evolved.
