Vikings VS Bengals Best Bets


Moneyline/Point Spread Pick: Cincinnati Bengals (ML/-3)

Poised to keep building momentum as they extend their winning streak to three-games, back the Bengals to defend home turf as they defeat the Vikings this afternoon, covering the spread as favourites in the process.

With the Bengals having continued to keep their playoff hopes alive thanks to the terrific play of backup quarterback Jake Browning, they are set to continue their dominant play as they take on a sputtering Vikings squad.

After barely scraping by with the win last week after besting the Las Vegas Raiders 3-0, the Vikings have looked abysmal offensively as of late. Even with the return of All-Pro wideout Justin Jefferson into their lineup, expect to see the Bengals control the pace of the game from start-to-finish on both sides of the football.

Set to dominate the game in the trenches, watch as the Bengals utilize their sensational receiving core to get out to an early lead before leaning on their stellar run-game to maintain the lead and secure the victory.

Bank on the Bengals to cover the spread in today’s opening matchup, improving their record to 8-6, and boosting your bankroll with this winning wager.

Over/Under Pick: Under 40.5 Points

While we expect to see the Bengals pull out the lopsided victory against the Vikings this afternoon, look for it to be a fairly low-scoring affair as the final score results in Under 40.5 points.

With both sides still navigating through a season of constant ups-and-downs, injuries, and roster moves, neither team is fully trustworthy when it comes to putting points on the board. While the Bengals have maintained a high-scoring pace, the same cannot be said about the Vikings.

Watch as the Bengals play smart football in todays tilt as they gain an edge on the scoreboard early before turning their attention to draining the clock, preventing the Vikings from stringing together scoring-drives, while also maintaining their lead as they look to earn a safe win.

Hammer the Under on the Vikings VS Bengals and watch as they combine for Under 40.5 points and watch as your account balance skyrockets while the final score remains low.

Vikings VS Bengals Player Prop Bets


Nick Mullens Under 241.5 Passing Yards (-115)

Taking the reigns of the offence after the continued lacklustre play from Josh Dobbs, don’t expect to see much production from newly appointed starting quarterback Nick Mullens in todays showdown.

Having found moderate success as a starter early on in his career with the 49ers, look for Mullens to struggle connecting with receivers in todays matchup. Having passed for only 83 yards on 13 attempts in last weeks matchup with the Raiders, look for Mullens to have a difficult time making plays in the pocket as he faces a tough pass-rush from the Bengals.

Fade the output of Mullens as the career backup cracks under the pressure, failing to record Over 241.5 passing yards, and netting you a big win off of his weak performance.

Joe Mixon Anytime Touchdown Scorer (-125)

Having caught fire in recent weeks, look for Bengals running back Joe Mixon to continue putting points on the scoreboard as he records a touchdown against the Vikings in todays fray.

After hitting paydirt in back-to-back games, Mixon has excelled in the absence of Joe Burrow. With his rushing attempts having increased as his team relies on him for offensive production, Mixon is a great pick to rumble into the end zone this evening.

Look for Mixon to have a heavy workload in tonight’s contest, running behind his solid offensive line, crashing his way into the end zone as he earns his team six points, while simultaneously netting you a solid payday with this player prop bet.
