Steelers vs Ravens ATS Betting Splits

Pittsburgh is currently a 2-point underdog, after opening at +2.5. At the new number the Steelers are garnering 62% of the spread wagers, and 52% of the ATS tickets.

Mike Tomlin’s teams have been phenomenal in an underdog role since he took over, and bettors are expecting that trend to continue. Pittsburgh is 49-30-3 when catching points under Tomlin since 2006, which is the best cover rate of any team as underdogs during that stretch.

The Steelers have covered in 20 of their last 30 games as ‘dogs versus divisional opponents, and enter play fresh off three consecutive road covers. Baltimore on the other hand, is just 1-5 ATS as home favorites this season per the Steelers vs Ravens picks.

Another reason bettors are down on Baltimore is the absence of Lamar Jackson. The 2019 MVP will sit again per the Steelers vs Ravens injury report, and the Baltimore offense has been abysmal without him – more on that later.

The Ravens are just 3-6-1 ATS in conference games this season, and while they did squeak out a cover in Week 14 against Pittsburgh, that was versus a Steelers team missing starting QB Kenny Pickett.

Pittsburgh vs Baltimore Total Betting Splits

Total-wise, the over/under is down to 35 after opening up at 41.5. The major line move is mostly due to the absence of Jackson. In the four games he’s either sat or left early in, Baltimore has averaged a pathetic 11.4 points. Six of the past seven Ravens home games have fallen under the total, as have three straight meetings with Pittsburgh.

Ravens-Steelers game flexed to Sunday night.

It's unreal that this will mark the first time since 2018 that these AFC North rivals are facing each other on prime time.

From 2001 to 2018, the Ravens and Steelers played 14 prime time games against each other in an 18-year span.

Big money bettors however, are not deterred. Despite the Week 14 meeting between these two rivals producing only 30 points, 69% of all money wagered on the total is backing over 35. That handle is coming off of only 38% of the over/under bets, which suggests we have a sharps vs squares divide on the total as of Sunday morning.

Another reason to be bearish on the Baltimore side is a tough matchup versus the Pittsburgh run defense. The Ravens run at the league’s third highest rate, but the Steelers rank sixth in run defense DVOA, and are fresh off holding both the Panthers and Raiders below 60 total rushing yards. As a result, consider a fade on Baltimore RB’s in the Steelers vs Ravens player props.

Ravens vs Steelers Moneyline Splits

As far as the moneyline market goes, the action also favors Pittsburgh. 53% of the handle is backing the Steelers as +115 underdogs. Pittsburgh has won outright as a ‘dog four times this season, most recently two weeks ago in Carolina.

The Steelers arguably should have beaten the Ravens in Week 14, but three Mitch Trubisky interceptions in Baltimore territory was the difference in a 16-14 defeat. Pittsburgh outgained the Ravens in that matchup, and should expect much better quarterback play from Pickett.

The rookie pivot has thrown only one interception in his last six starts, while the team is 4-1 straight up in the last five games he’s started and finished.
