Pittsburgh Steelers at Cincinnati Bengals Preview & Picks

Pittsburgh are tipped to cover as an underdog on the road.

The Steelers defense is more than capable of slowing down Joe Burrow & Co, while the offense is likely to enjoy success against a terrible Cincinnati defense.

  • Pittsburgh Steelers are 5-1-0 ATS in their last 6 games
  • Pittsburgh Steelers are 4-2-0 ATS on the road this season
  • Cincinnati Bengals are 1-4-0 ATS at home this season
  • The Over has hit in 7 of the last 8 games involving either of these teams

Head To Head

  • Pittsburgh Steelers lead the all-time series 70-39
  • Pittsburgh Steelers won 34-11 when the two teams last met in December 2023

Pittsburgh Steelers Form

Pittsburgh go into this big divisional clash looking to bounce back from a surprise defeat that ended their five-game win streak and dropped them to 8-3.

The Steelers opened the season with three consecutive wins, before cooling off as they suffered back-to-back defeats at the hands of Indianapolis and Dallas.

They responded in style though, sparking a five-game win streak with a 32-13 victory in Las Vegas.

Pittsburgh then beat the two New York teams at home; the Jets 37-15 and the Giants 26-18; before downing Washington 28-27 on the road.

The Steelers made it five-in-a-row with an 18-16 win over AFC North rivals Baltimore, only to then suffer an upset defeat at the hands of another division rival, losing 24-19 to Cleveland.

Cincinnati Bengals Form

Cincinnati go into this matchup on the back of a couple of defeats that have left them with a 4-7 record.

The Bengals struggled early on as they lost their first three games of the season, before finally getting off the mark with a 34-24 win in Carolina.

They failed to back that up as they lost 41-38 in overtime against Baltimore, but they did rally to beat the New York Giants, 17-7, and Cleveland, 21-14, on the road.

Cincinnati failed to make it three-in-a-row, losing 37-17 to Philadelphia, only to rebound with a 41-24 victory over Las Vegas.

The Bengals have not won since though, heading out on the road for a 35-34 defeat to Baltimore and a 34-27 loss at the Los Angeles Chargers.

Verdict

The AFC North continues to produce upsets, so we are tempted by the free points here.

This Steelers defense is capable of making stops, unlike this bad Bengals unit, so we at the very least expect the visitors to push Cincinnati all the way.
