Two AFC rivals start Week 10 action in the NFL as the Cincinnati Bengals take on the Baltimore Ravens. Which team will move one game closer to first place in the AFC North?

The Ravens sit third in the Super Bowl Odds entering Thursday, while their star quarterback Lamar Jackson is the front-runner in the NFL MVP odds.

There's no shortage of options this week for our first touchdown scorer predictions ahead of Thursday Night Football. 

The Baltimore Ravens have logged the first touchdown in eight of their nine games this season. Running back Derrick Henry, the faraway favorite in the NFL Offensive Player of the year odds, has crossed the goal line first a team-high five times. However, he’s accomplished that only once over the last three weeks, which is why I'm looking further down the Ravens' roster for my pick. 

Despite their 4-5 record, the Cincinnati Bengals are fast starters after finding the end zone first in six of their nine contests this season. While looking at the best NFL betting sites, I have my eyes on a receiver who's scored first for his team twice already, and he leads his teammates in touchdowns this season.

Chase leads the Bengals with seven touchdowns on the season. He's crossed the goal line four times in his last five games, including a two-touchdown performance in Week 5 against the Ravens. 

The veteran wideout posted season-high totals during his last meeting with Baltimore, catching 10 of his 12 targets for 193 yards on top of his two touchdowns.  

Cincinnati enters Thursday night with the league’s fifth-highest passing touchdown percentage (71.4), and the team will be facing a Ravens defense allowing the third-highest percentage of passing touchdowns (75.0) this year. 

Chase has logged five touchdowns in his last four games against Baltimore, and I expect him to do it again this week. Putting $10 on this bet will give you a $65 profit as part of your NFL Week 10 predictions.

Gary Pearson also believes Chase's quarterback will enjoy a productive night in his Bengals vs. Ravens prediction.

Ravens first touchdown scorer prediction: Mark Andrews, TE ⭐⭐⭐

Best odds: +1600 via bet365 | Implied probability: 5.88%

Andrews may not be the threat he once was earlier in his career, but that hasn't stopped him from leading the Ravens in touchdown receptions (four) this season.

The long-tenured Baltimore tight end has scored in three of his last four games, including a two touchdown outing against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers three weeks ago.

Last time these teams met, a tight end scored three of the five Baltimore touchdowns. Two of those came from Isaiah Likely, who will miss this week with a hamstring injury. 

The books heavily favor Henry (+325) to cross the goal line first in this game as he’s done five times this season. I expect the Bengals will throw everything at him to stop that from happening, leaving the Ravens to counter with an Andrews touchdown pass to open the scoring.

Meanwhile, Phil Wood is looking toward Henry to score twice as part of his Bengals vs. Ravens TNF prop bets.
