Cincinnati, off to a 2-0 start, is favored by 3.5 points at Pittsburgh for Sunday's AFC North clash, with the total listed at 42.5.
The Cincinnati Bengals visit the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 3 to open AFC North play, and oddsmakers see the road team in control. FanDuel Sportsbook lists Cincinnati as a 3.5-point favorite, with the Steelers at +144 on the moneyline.
The Bengals enter the matchup at 2-0, having beaten Tampa Bay and Houston. Pittsburgh dropped to 1-1 after a loss to the New England Patriots in Week 2, a game in which the offense led by Aaron Rodgers struggled to move the ball.
The over/under for the game is set at 42.5 points. The division rivals split their season series a year ago, with Cincinnati winning 33-31 on October 16 and Pittsburgh answering with a 34-12 victory on November 16.
A home win would move the Steelers to 2-1 and give them an early edge in the AFC North standings.
