Match preview

Neither Cleveland nor Baltimore would be at the top of lists most NFL punters would want to trust with their money this season, and the best move for their AFC North clash in Maryland on Sunday night is to take the Browns with a generous handicap start

The Browns have not lived up to expectations this season. They have a winning record at 6-5 but are last in a competitive division, although they would be right on the heels of the 7-3 Ravens if they can pull off a win on the road.

The Ravens' have claimed wins in four or five games they could easily have lost this season, including last week, when back-up quarterback Tyler Huntley led them to a comeback success over Chicago.

Baltimore had been thrashed by the Bengals, beat the Vikings in overtime, and shockingly lost by 12 to Miami prior to that, so it's difficult to fancy them to score a clear win in this contest.

They are expected to have quarterback Lamar Jackson back for this game, and he starred in an amazing 47-42 win over the Browns last season, but it's a while since he pulled off something like that.

Browns QB Baker Mayfield is playing through a multitude of injuries, but they should get their elite running back pairing of Nick Chubb and Kareem Hunt back together for this game and grinding it out on the ground should see them at least make a game of it.

Key stat

The Ravens have covered the handicap in only two of their last six games.
