The Chicago Bears will host the Cincinnati Bengals for their home opener, where the Bears will be looking for their first win of the season.

The Bears are coming off an embarrassing 34-14 loss to the Los Angeles Rams, where there were plenty of concerns on offense and defense. But even as Chicago prepares to face a Bengals offense with some impressive weapons, the Bears have a chance to come away with a win as Andy Dalton looks to go 2-0 against his former team.

There’s not as much confidence in Chicago heading into this game as 57% of experts are picking the Bears to lose to the Bengals on Sunday, according to NFL Pick Watch.

Chicago is currently 2.5-point home favorites, according to Tipico Sportsbook, and this game projects to be a close one. So it’s not a surprise to see the experts divided.

Can the Bears get their first win of the season? Or will the Bengals leave Chicago stranded at 0-2?

We’ll see Sunday when the Bears and Bengals kick things off at Noon CT on FOX.
