Cincinnati Bengals vs. Baltimore Ravens: Initial situation
After losing three consecutive games to start the season, the Cincinnati Bengals found themselves with the season being on the line this early in the season. The Baltimore Ravens lost the first two, but managed to bounce back and have found their recognizable game. Watching Joe Burrow going against Lamar Jackson is a real pleasure for every NFL fan and it will be interesting to see who will win the quarterback battle.
Cincinnati Bengals Stats & Form
The Cincinnati Bengals are at the bottom of the AFC North with a 1-3 record. They started the season with three consecutive losses with a total of 12 points against the New England Patriots, Kansas City Chiefs and Washington Commanders. Knowing that only one team in NFL history has made it to the playoffs after losing the first four games of the season, the Bengals found themselves with their backs against the wall going in Week 4. They responded in the right manner and won 34-24 on the road against the Carolina Panthers. Joe Burrow threw for 232 yards and two touchdowns and Chase Brown ran for 80 yards and two scores to lead the Bengals to a much needed win.
Baltimore Ravens Stats & Form
The Baltimore Ravens are second in the AFC North with a 2-2 record. Things didn’t start well for them as they lost on the last play in the season opener against the defending champions Kansas City Chiefs. That wasn’t a big deal but when the Ravens fall 26-23 at home to the Las Vegas Raiders, the alarm was already on. The Ravens had to go to Dallas to face the Cowboys and managed to win that one 28-25. The real test came last week, when the undefeated Buffalo Bills were in town, and the Ravens proved they are a real contender this season, with a 35-10 win. Lamar Jackson threw for two touchdowns and rushed for another but Derrick Henry was the main man for the Ravens with a 199-yard game.

Betting tip and prediction: Cincinnati Bengals – Baltimore Ravens (06.10.2024)
The Cincinnati Bengals and the Baltimore Ravens came into the season as two of the main favorites to go deep. Things didn’t start well for any of them as they are going into Week 5 with three wins combined. Things are particularly difficult for the Bengals who have only one win. Joe Burrow stepped up big time last week leading his team to a comfortable win on the road but comparing the Ravens defense against any other in the league is no sense. The Ravens have allowed the least rush yards in the entire league and are also on top with allowed rushing attempts. Things are not so well when it comes to passing yards and attempts where the Ravens have been very vulnerable. That is where the Bengals see their opportunity and everything will depend on Burrow. He has shown many times that he can deliver under pressure, so we go with the Bengals to cover the +2.5-point spread.
