Cincinnati Bengals - NFL Betting Analysis

Last week, the Bengals knocked off the Buccaneers by a score of 34-23. Not only did Cincinnati walk away with the win, but they also covered the spread as -3.0 point favorites. With their combined 57 points, the two teams exceeded the betting over-under number of 47. On their way to picking up an 11-point win, Cincinnati held a 3-point lead heading into the 4th quarter at 20-17. Through 14 games, the Bengals have an ATS record of 11-3. So far, they have an over-under record of 5-8-1. This week's betting total of 39.5 is lower than the line in their previous games.

As the Bengals prepare to take on New England, they have played well on offense, ranking 5th in points per game at 26.4. Even though they have a tough matchup against the league's 8th-ranked defense, look for Cincinnati to continue their strong offensive play. This season, Cincinnati has been one of the better passing teams in the league, averaging 262.1 yards per game through the air. Although the Patriots' defense has been able to limit opposing teams in the passing game, Cincinnati should still be able to continue to generate big plays through the pass. On the ground, the Bengals are just the 26th-ranked team in rush yards at 100 yards per game.

 

New England Patriots - NFL Betting Analysis

This week, the New England Patriots are hoping to get back in the win column after falling 30-24 to the Las Vegas Raiders. The loss was costly, as it came against an AFC opponent. New England not only lost the game but failed to cover the spread as 2.5-point underdogs. With their combined 54 points, the two teams exceeded the betting over-under number of 45. The Patriots were not able to make a comeback in last week's game, as they trailed Las Vegas by a score of 17-13 heading into the final quarter. Through 14 games, the Patriots have an ATS record of 7-6-1. So far, they have an over-under record of 6-8. This week's betting total of 39.5 is slightly lower than the line in their previous games.

As the Patriots prepare to take on Cincinnati, they are ranked 17th in points per game at 21.4 and will be matched up against the NFL's 11th-ranked defense. For the season, the Patriots are ranked 23rd in pass yards per game but could improve these numbers against a secondary ranked 20th in pass yards allowed. On the ground, New England is the 19th-ranked team in rush yards per game and have a tough matchup against a stout defensive front.

 

Today's NFL Betting Pick - Bengals vs. Patriots

In 3 most recent matchups between Cincinnati and New England, the Patriots have dominated the series, winning 3 straight games. The two teams have combined to average 53.0 points per game in their last 3 meetings. Cincinnati and New England did not play each other in the 2021-2022 regular season.

The New England Patriots have gone 3-0 vs the spread in these games. On average, the Bengals have averaged 15.67 points per game in the past 3 head-to-head matchups, compared to New England at 37.3.

Through their last 3 games, the Bengals have a record of 3-0. This also includes going 3-0 ATS and an over-under mark of 1-2

When looking at their past 3 road matchups, Cincinnati has an ATS record of 3-0 while averaging 30.3 per game. The team went 3-0 overall in these games.

Over their last 3 regular season games, the Patriots have gone 1-2 straight up. In these games, they have gone just 1-2 vs the spread while posting an over-under mark of 1-2.

New England has played well in their previous 3 home games, going 2-1 straight up. In this stretch, they averaged 15.3 points per game while allowing 10.0. The team also performed well vs the spread at 2-1.
