The Pittsburgh Steelers and the Cleveland Browns are engaged in a surprise battle for top spot in the AFC North, with both teams heading into this contest at 5-2 and eyeing a Super Bowl push. Cleveland shaded a tight tussle 27-24 when they had home advantage in Week 4 but have a poor record in Pittsburgh, plus the Steelers appear to be improving with every match at present.
Mike McCarthy’s side have been particularly impressive in the trenches on both sides of the ball of late, so we’re siding with them to prevail by more than 3.5 points at 10/11 with our first Steelers vs Browns prediction.

Pittsburgh Steelers Form Guide
The Steelers bounced back from that narrow loss in Cleveland by seeing off the Indianapolis Colts 34-22 at this venue, maintaining a 100 per cent home record following earlier wins against the Atlanta Falcons and the Cincinnati Bengals.
Pittsburgh then battled hard for a 26-19 overtime victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on the road and last week beat the New Orleans Saints 16-10 in Paris. That most recent success showcased just how strong the Steelers’ defensive line has become, with quarterback Tyler Shough being the Saints’ leading rusher with just seven yards.
Going forward, Pittsburgh playmaker Aaron Rodgers obviously isn’t as mobile as he once was at the age of 42, but a stout offensive line is doing a grand job of protecting the four-time NFL MVP, as well as creating gaps for in-form running back Jaylen Warren.
The 27-year-old has rushed for more than 100 yards three times in the last five games and picked up 93 when these teams met a month ago, so 20/23 for Warren to exceed 66.5 here stands out from the Steelers vs Browns odds.
Cleveland Browns Form Guide
After going 3-14 and 5-12 for the past couple of seasons, the Browns looked set to struggle again when opening up with a 34-10 defeat at the Jacksonville Jaguars, but they have since upset the odds on a regular basis.
Cleveland have made a habit of shading tight tussles, with their biggest winning margin being four points in victories over Tampa Bay, the Carolina Panthers, Pittsburgh, the Baltimore Ravens and the Tennessee Titans.
That hot streak has been littered with late game-winning drives, but we are concerned by the way the Browns went 14-0 behind early on in Tennessee last weekend. Making back-to-back road trips is never easy and Cleveland do have a 17-12 away loss against the New York Jets on their record, which just makes Pittsburgh a percentage pick here.
In what could develop into a dogged battle between two tough defences, let’s add 7/4 for a home win and under 39.5 total points to our Steelers vs Browns betting tips.
