49ers at Bengals odds, lines, predictions and picks
Prediction
49ers 33. Bengals 30
Money line
The 49ers are 4-2 on the road this season and have scored 30 or more points in four of their last six games.
The Bengals are inconsistent defensively this season. They have allowed over 30 points three times and 13 or fewer points four times.
The 49ers are the same. They have given up 30 or more five times and 17 or fewer four times.
This is a true toss-up game but the 49ers’ only two losses in their last six games were against division opponents.
Take the 49ERS (-125).
Against the spread
With the spread so small, it doesn’t make sense to look at one team on the money line and another ATS.
The 49ers are 5-7 ATS this season compared to the Bengals’ 6-6 ATS record. San Francisco has covered the spread in four of its last six games, while the Bengals have in four of their last seven.
Take the 49ERS -1.5 (-115).
Over/Under
This should be a shootout. The Bengals have had five of their last six games hit the Over. The 49ers have had five of their last seven do the same.
Both teams are capable of scoring and allowing more than 30 points.
Take OVER 49.5 (-108).
