About Cincinnati Bengals vs. Baltimore Ravens

AFC North games between these two carry an edge that has little to do with the standings, and a New Year's Eve slot adds a restless, holiday energy to the crowd. Expect a cold-weather test of running games and division-rivalry physicality rather than a finesse contest. For those with plans that evening, the early start leaves the rest of the day free once the final whistle blows.

Where to stay nearby

Cincinnati itself is the obvious base, sitting just a few kilometres from Paycor Stadium and offering by far the widest choice of hotels for this trip. Staying there means a short journey to the ground on game day and easy access to the city's restaurants and bars afterwards, useful given the early afternoon kickoff leaves an open evening ahead. Sixteen Mile Stand, further out, has only a handful of hotels and suits those who prefer a quieter stay and don't mind a longer drive in on the day.

Cincinnati — about 4 km away

About Cincinnati Bengals

The Bengals were founded in 1968 by Paul Brown, the coaching pioneer who had earlier built the Cleveland Browns, and he chose the name to revive an earlier Cincinnati Bengals franchise from decades before. The team joined the NFL through the 1970 AFL merger. Cincinnati has reached the Super Bowl three times, after the 1981, 1988 and 2021 seasons, without a win, the closest coming in a one-score loss each time.

Quarterback Joe Burrow's arrival in 2020 sparked the franchise's most recent run to the title game, reviving a fanbase through a long stretch of lean years, and the Bengals' tiger-stripe uniforms remain among the most recognisable in the league.

Cincinnati Bengals records & quirks

Between 1990 and 2021 the Bengals endured the NFL's longest playoff-win drought, at 31 years.
Their 2021 AFC title-game run ended the league's longest conference-championship drought, at 33 years.
Cincinnati's 2021 divisional win at Tennessee was the franchise's first-ever playoff win on the road.

About Paycor Stadium

Home to the Cincinnati Bengals, Paycor Stadium sits on the banks of the Ohio River in downtown Cincinnati, a classic riverside setting beside Great American Ball Park. The riverfront district is walkable on game days, with the Over-the-Rhine neighbourhood — packed with craft breweries and restaurants — a short ride away.

Public transit links are modest, so most fans drive or use rideshare. Booking a room downtown or in Over-the-Rhine keeps the city's best dining and the stadium both within easy reach.
