NFL odds Week 5: How to bet Bengals-Ravens, pick

The Cincinnati Bengals and Baltimore Ravens (both 2-2) resume one of the NFL’s toughest rivalries when opponents from the AFC North Division meet in Baltimore Sunday night.

The Bengals have won the last two contests to reduce the Ravens’ all-time lead to 27-25. Cincinnati has 41 points in each of its two wins over Baltimore over the past year (41-21 on Dec. 26, 41-17 on Oct. 24), but the Ravens won the five games prior to that of 2018-21 by a combined scoring margin from 161-57.

Here’s everything you need from a betting perspective on the Bengals-Ravens game, from point spread, moneyline, total over/under and expert picks (odds via FOX Bet):

Select over Gambling Analyst Sam Panayotovich:

I stay higher than most people on the Ravens.

Their offense is dangerously explosive thanks to star quarterback Lamar Jackson’s MVP-caliber play, and they already have 119 points in four games, which ranks third in the league behind Detroit and Kansas City.

However, the key here for Baltimore is to pressure Cincinnati quarterback Joe Burrow, who has been struggling this season. Burrow has the second most sacks in the NFL (16) and is completing a career-low 64% of his passes. Protection is a serious issue and I like it when the Ravens take advantage of it.

Give me Baltimore by a touchdown Sunday night.

SELECT: Ravens (-3 on FOX Bet) win by more than 3 points
