Ravens hope to beat Pittsburgh twice this season with this week’s matchup

Before their previous matchup, Pittsburgh was able to beat Baltimore four times in a row. The Ravens will try and reverse that trend and start stacking wins against their long-time rivals. It was a tough game for both teams as they both battled an ugly fight that ended with the Ravens securing a victory when it was all said and done.

The Steelers need to win this game so they can keep their shallow playoff aspirations alive. Baltimore enters this game with the belief that they can win out and jump past the Bengals in the division standings. The health of Lamar Jackson is going to play a big factor in the outcome of this contest on Sunday.

Most should keep an eye on Baltimore’s injury report throughout the week to see if Jackson and Calais Campbell are able to suit up this week or not. Missing one or both of those players could increase the Steelers chances of winning significantly. It was a two-point difference the last time these two clubs played, and it might be that close again.

Both starting quarterbacks were missing the last time these two played because of injury. Pickett and Jackson could both be available for this matchup and that could be a significant factor for either club. Expect the Steelers to keep this close and battle, but if Jackson and Campbell play, this is going to be another loss for Pittsburgh.
