Cincinnati Bengals at Kansas City Chiefs Preview & Picks

Kansas City are tipped to cover as they win this big AFC matchup.

The Chiefs’ recent record against Cincinnati is improving, and over the past couple of seasons the Bengals have been guilty of making slow starts.

  • Kansas City Chiefs are 2-0-0 ATS in the last 2 meetings
  • Cincinnati Bengals have lost their Week 2 game in each of the past 3 seasons
  • The Under has cashed in each of the last 4 meetings
  • The Under has hit in 7 of Kansas City’s last 8 home games

Head To Head

  • Cincinnati Bengals lead the all-time series 18-16
  • Kansas City Chiefs won 25-17 when the two teams last met in December 2023

Cincinnati Bengals Form

Cincinnati came into the 2024 season looking to bounce back from a disappointing 2023 campaign that saw them finish bottom of the AFC North.

The Bengals rallied from losing their first two games of the campaign to reach 5-3, but a three-game skid in November dealt a major blow to their chances of making the playoffs.

They responded with a three-game win streak, only to suffer back-breaking road defeats to Pittsburgh and Kansas City over Christmas.

Cincinnati did sign off on a positive note though, beating Cleveland 31-14 to at least finish above .500 with a 9-8 record.

The Bengals warmed up for this season by going 0-3 in the preseason, sandwiching a defeat in Chicago with home losses to Tampa Bay and Indianapolis.

They then suffered a surprise defeat in their regular season opener, losing 16-10 at home to New England.

Kansas City Chiefs Form

Defending Super Bowl champions Kansas City entered the 2024 season looking to make history.

Following their overtime win over San Francisco back in February, the Chiefs are now bidding to become the first team in history to three-peat.

Not even the New England Patriots managed that feat during the Brady-Belichick Era, but KC find themselves on the brink of history.

They return with a roster that is arguably stronger than the one that went all the way last season, so it is no surprise to see them heading up the Super Bowl betting.

The Chiefs went 0-3 in the 2024 preseason, losing to Jacksonville, Detroit and Chicago, but when the real action started in Week 1 they got back to winning ways.

Rookie Xavier Worthy scored a couple of touchdowns as they held off Baltimore for a 27-20 victory.

Verdict

Kansas City have started to lift their Cincinnati hoodoo over the past couple of seasons.

We expect that trend to continue as the Chiefs win this game and cover the spread too.
