Prediction

Bengals 23, Chargers 20

Moneyline

The Bengals have 5 games scoring 33 points or more, but the Chargers have the league’s No. 1 scoring defense, allowing only 13.1 points per game.

So which unit prevails, the Cincinnati offense or the Chargers defense?

This Cincy offense is much better than the last 3 teams the Chargers have faced in Tennessee, the New Orleans Saints and Cleveland Browns.

WR Tee Higgins returns to the lineup after missing the last 3 games for Cincinnati. Bengals QB Joe Burrow has 9 TD passes in his last 2 games.

BET BENGALS (+105).

Against the spread

With an expected upset straight-up win for the Bengals with plus odds on the moneyline, there is no need to look at the spread unless you want to consider some alternate spreads that favor the Bengals. You can get +120 odds with an alternate spread of Bengals -2.5.

PASS.

Over/Under

The highest total the Chargers have had this season is 44, which was last week. The projected total of 48 for this matchup is wild.

The Over has cashed in for Cincinnati in 3 straight and in 7 of 10 games this season, but even if you like the Bengals to win, you can’t expect them to score much more than the season-high the Chargers have allowed this season of 20.

BET UNDER 48 (-110).
