Super Bowl LVI pits the Los Angeles Rams against the Cincinnati Bengals in a clash between two teams seeking their first Super Bowl victory in recent memory. The Rams enter as 4-point favorites with a moneyline of -190 to -200, while the Bengals are +170 underdogs. The total is set at 48.5 points.

The Rams bring a balanced attack, having scored 30+ points twice while holding opponents under 17 points twice during their playoff run. Their defensive front, led by Von Miller and Aaron Donald, could be the difference-maker against a Bengals offensive line that allowed 9 sacks in one playoff game.

Cincinnati reached the Super Bowl by upsetting both Tennessee and Kansas City on the road. While Joe Burrow and the offense get headlines, their defense has been stellar, allowing just under 20 points per game in the playoffs. However, pass protection remains their biggest concern heading into the matchup with LA's formidable pass rush.

Key Factors:

• Rams' pass rush vs Bengals' offensive line
• First Super Bowl appearance for both quarterbacks
• Rams playing in their home stadium
• Bengals seeking first Super Bowl win in franchise history

Prediction: The Rams' defensive front should provide enough pressure to disrupt Cincinnati's offense. Los Angeles covers the spread and becomes the second straight team to win a Super Bowl in their home stadium.

Betting Pick: Rams -4
