Monday Night Football – Pittsburgh Steelers vs. Cincinnati Bengals (8:40 PM ET)

The Pittsburgh Steelers will try to rebound from one of their poorer performances in recent memory when they visit the Cincinnati Bengals tonight in a matchup of two teams expected to vie for the AFC North crown.

The Steelers are coming off a disastrous Week 1 loss to Tennessee in which they managed only 195 total yards and lost three players to season-ending injuries. The Bengals blew an 11-point, second-half lead in a 24-21 season-opening loss to Chicago.

Cincinnati’s defense includes former Steelers linebacker James Harrison, the 2008 NFL Defensive Player of the Year who signed with the Bengals in the offseason. The Steelers have history on their side, having recorded a 10-1 SU record in their last 11 games in Cincinnati.

Odds: Pittsburgh (+6.5) at Cincinnati (-6.5); O/U: 41.0

Not unlike their SU record, the Steelers boast a record of 13-2-1 ATS in their last 16 meetings in Cincinnati. Meanwhile, the Bengals are 7-2-1 ATS in their last 10 games.

Moreover, the favorite is 5-1 ATS in their last six meetings.
