Betting Odds

Point Spread: Los Angeles -6.5
Total: 41.5

<p>
The Pittsburgh Steelers (1-4) and Los Angeles Chargers (2-3) will lock horns in a prime-time conference clash. Kick-off time is scheduled for 8:20 PM on Sunday, October 13th, 2019, when the two sides meet in the City of Angels. The game will be broadcasted for national audiences on NBC. The Bolts and the Black and Yellow last met in the Steel City last year, where the Chargers defeated the Steelers 33-30. As a result, Los Angeles was able to cash in as an outright winner, closing as a three-point underdog.

<h2>
Pittsburgh Steelers at Los Angeles Chargers Key Injury Concerns<br />
</h2>
<p>
Steelers Quarterback Mason Rudolph remains a question mark heading into this match-up as he makes his way through concussion protocol. Rudolph stepped in for injured franchise signal-caller Ben Roethlisberger who went to the Injury Reserve after Pittsburgh’s Week Two match-up against Seattle. Rudolph is an essential ingredient to Pittsburgh’s success as the Steelers were unable to find the end-zone through the air once he existed Pittsburgh’s last outing against Baltimore.

<h2>
Pittsburgh Steelers at Los Angeles Chargers Overview<br />
</h2>
<p>
<b>Pittsburgh Steelers </b>
</p>
<p>
The Steelers come into this affair off a bitter overtime loss to their arch-rival the Baltimore Ravens. Closing as a 3.5-point underdog, the Steel Curtain was able to produce a green-up for backers when they lost 26-23 at home last Sunday. Pittsburgh has been a cover machine as they have been in the money for three consecutive outings.
</p>
<p>
<b>Los Angeles Chargers </b>
</p>
<p>
The Bolts come into this contest off an uninspiring result. Closing as a four-point favorite when they hosted divisional rival Denver, the Chargers were upset 20-13 by the winless Broncos. The Chargers have now only covered twice in their previous ten matches.
</p>
<h2>
Reasons to Avoid Pittsburgh<br />
</h2>
<p>
With Pittsburgh looking strong last week at home and their present cover streak, the Steelers are prone to be overvalued here stepping into this contest. With that said, the quarterback situation remains a mystery which poses the threat of the Steelers being one-dimensional against Los Angeles. This does not fare well for Pittsburgh as should they elect to run the ball heavy, Pittsburgh ranks 29th in the league producing just 67 yards on the ground per game. This is not a favorable position to be backing the Steelers.
</p>
<h2>
Reasons to Back Los Angeles<br />
</h2>
<p>
On the flip-side, the Chargers are in prime-position for a bounce back after last week's upset. Despite the Chargers being in a position to be undervalued given their lack of profitability along with the previous week's result, the market has remained firm in pricing the Chargers as a touchdown favorite. In fact, some of the sharper books have kept the Chargers a half-point ahead of the field, signifying (these outfits presently have Los Angeles at -7) that they are steering bets away to their competitors for anyone that wishes to back LA in this spot. This says to me it's the ideal time to get behind the Chargers.

Steelers at Chargers Prediction 10/13/19

I can easily see the Bolts taking out their frustration from last week’s loss on the Steelers and using the national stage to send a message to the rest of the league. Should Rudolph not be ready to roll for this affair, Los Angeles can run away with this game early and never look back. Be that as it may, Los Angeles should win this game by a touchdown at minimum. However, I see this game having blowout written all over it. Chargers win big and cover easy.
