Five-time Super Bowl Champions - the Green Bay Packers and three-time Champions - the New England Patriots are joint favourites to win Super Bowl XLVII, ahead of the kickoff to the 2012 season. This according to odds released by JustBet, the Supreme Ventures sports betting brand.

The Giants will open the 2012 Regular Season at home against the Dallas Cowboys on Wednesday, September 5, 2012 at 7:30pm (Jamaica time). The Playoffs will begin on Saturday January 5, 2013 and end with the Champions being crowned at Super Bowl XLVII on Sunday, February 3, 2013.
