Detroit Lions vs Cincinnati Bengals.
Stadium: Ford Field, Detroit.
The Detroit Lions and the Cincinnati Bengals will meet in another game in Week 6 of the NFL regular season. The home team is yet to win their new season opener. The visitors, on the other hand, have lost only two games out of five. Do Detroit have no chance of breaking their losing streak? There are several betting options to choose from.
Detroit have been solely on the back of Stafford
One look at the Los Angeles Rams’ Matthew Stafford is enough to understand his role in Detroit over the years. Without him, the team wasn’t there. The Lions, where Jared Goff now serves as the starting quarterback, not only aren’t winning. They don’t even think about winning. Although they only lost by 2 points to Minnesota last week. But the bottom line is still the same.
And Cincinnati aren’t just hanging on to Burrow
The 1st pick of the 2020 draft, Joe Burrow, is off to a much better start in his second season in professional football. The optimistic predictions are coming true, though you wouldn’t know it from the stats - 6 touchdowns to 3 interceptions and as many as 20 sacks. But the team has three wins in 5 games, and that’s all that matters.
But the main credit for the success rests, of course, on the shoulders of the defense. The high 7th place in the defensive efficiency ranking is clear proof of that.
Expert Betting Tips
Detroit are nothing on offense, but quality defence is sometimes capable, as their matchup last week against Minnesota proved once again. The Bengals’ success is also largely a result of the defensive brigade and defensive coordinator Lou Anarumo.
