Cincinnati is 4-0 ATS in their last 4 December games and 13-3 ATS in their last 16 road games. The under is 13-4-1 in Cincinnati’s last 18 games. Tampa Bay is 1-6-1 ATS in their last 8 home games and 0-10-1 ATS in their last 11 games on grass. The under is 4-1 in Tampa Bay’s last 5 games. Cincinnati is 0-5 ATS in these two teams last 5 head to head meetings.

Tampa Bay comes into this game after losing two of their last three games and getting absolutely dominated by the 49ers in their last game. Cincinnati has won five games in a row and is scoring over 8 points more per game than Tampa Bay. The Tampa Bay offense has been below average this year and I think last week is going to carry over into this week. I like Cincinnati to get the job done on the road.
