Minutes away from kickoff, the Pittsburgh Steelers are the slight favorite to win Saturday afternoon’s AFC Divisional Playoff game against the Baltimore Ravens. Working in the Steelers’ favor: they’re playing at home in Heinz Field, and thanks to their No. 2 seed in the AFC, they’re entering the game with two weeks’ rest.
Ravens Vs. Steelers Odds: Pittsburgh Remains The Slight Favorite
The Ravens, however, hold a 12-4 regular-season record that’s identical to Pittsburgh’s. The Ravens’ defense is one of the few in the league that can hold its own with the Steelers’ defense. The two teams split the two games against one another this season; curiously enough, the home team lost in both games.
Bodog.com has the over/under set at 37.5, and gives the Steelers a line of 3.0. It’s judged to be a much tighter contest than either of Sunday’s playoff games (Bears at 10.0 over the Seahawks, and Patriots at 9.0 over the Jets.)
