The Arizona Cardinals will host the Cincinnati Bengals Sunday afternoon at State Farm Stadium in Week 5. The two teams have only played 12 times dating back to 1973.
Each has won six games in the all-time series. The Cardinals have won four of the last 5 meetings.
But there is something the Bengals have never done.
They have never beaten the Cardinals on the road. They are 0-4 in four road games against the Cardinals, 0-3 in Arizona.
The Cardinals beat the Bengals 41-27 in 1985, the only time they faced each other in St. Louis.
In 1994, the Cardinals won 28-7 in Sun Devil Stadium.
Still in Sun Devil Stadium in 2003, the Cardinals won 17-14.
The last time the Bengals were on the road against the Cardinals, it was in 2015. The Cardinals won that game 34-31.
The Cardinals hope to make it five straight home wins over the Bengals on Sunday.
The Bengals have struggled in two road games this season. Even so, they are favored by three points.
