Cincinnati Bengals @ Pittsburgh Steelers: Over/Under
|
This will be an exciting weeknight divisional matchup between 2 teams, Cincinnati Bengals vs Pittsburgh Steelers, that are going in opposite directions. The Steelers are leading the division at 7-3; meanwhile the Bengals at 1-8-1 have the third worst record in the league. However, this does not necessarily mean that Pittsburgh will completely blowout the opponent. After losing its first 8 in a row, Cincinnati finally got its first win against Jacksonville and managed a tie against Philadelphia last Sunday. |
I am quite confident in picking the over for several reasons. This season there has been a hot trend favouring the over for weeknight football games. The over record for those games is currently 12-2-1. Additionally, the total went over 5 out of the last 6 meetings in Pittsburgh between these two teams. There is a lot of value in making this kind of bet. The Steelers are a defensive powerhouse and the Bengals have struggled to score points all season but this point total is so low that it can easily be broken. The key to this bet is that it’s a low point total on a weeknight football game. The trends point to the over and there is a very low total to beat. The numbers don’t lie… Go with the over.
