Ravens vs Bengals live stream today: How to watch NFL game online from anywhere, inactives and injury news

Derrick Henry #22 of the Baltimore Ravens runs the ball in for a touchdown ahead of the Ravens vs Bengals live stream.

The Ravens vs Bengals live stream is a matchup between Baltimore's all-conquering rushing offense and Cincinnati's hapless rush defense — and you can watch it from anywhere with a VPN and potentially for free!

We may never know why John Harbaugh was so reluctant to lean into the Ravens' ridiculous ground talent in the early weeks of the season, but belatedly unleashing Derrick Henry has pulled them back to 2-2. They're already averaging an NFL-best 220.5 yards on the ground per game, and Henry and Lamar Jackson could have a lot of fun against a defensive unit surrendering 145.5 rushing yards per game.

The positive news for Cincinnati is that important defensive linemen BJ Hill, Myles Murphy, and McKinnley Jackson are all back from injury. Overall, the Bengals have activated nine defensive linemen to corral Baltimore's rushing attack. 

But the way the Ravens defense has struggled to deal with the ball in the air, they may need every offensive yard they can get, especially as Joe Burrow has finally found his range. Tee Higgins and Ja'Marr Chase combined for 145 yards in the Bengals' crisis-averting 34-24 victory over the Panthers, and they'll be looking to pad their stats against the third-worst pass defense in the NFL.

Right now DraftKings has the Ravens as 3-point favorites on the road. We have all the information on how to watch Ravens vs Bengals below, and all of this season's football with our 2024/25 NFL live streams guide.

FREE Ravens vs Bengals live streams

If you're fortunate enough to live in Australia, you can enjoy free Ravens vs Bengals coverage. That's because the game is being shown on free-to-air 7Mate and its associated streaming service, 7Plus.

But what if you're based in Australia but aren't at home to catch that free Ravens vs Bengals stream? Maybe you're on holiday and don't want to spend money on pay TV in another country, when you'd usually be able to watch the game for free at home?

Don't worry — you can watch it using a VPN instead. We'll show you how to do that below.

How to watch Ravens vs Bengals from anywhere

Away from home at the moment and blocked from watching the game on your usual subscription? You can still tune in via a virtual private network, or VPN. A VPN makes it appear like you're surfing the web from your home, allowing you to access the streaming services you already pay for. It's legal and easy to do.

We've tested many different VPN services and our favorite is NordVPN; it offers superb speeds, excellent customer service and a no-questions-asked 30-day money-back guarantee, so you can try it out first to see if it's right for you. But you've got other VPN options too, so check out our full list of the best VPN services.

Using a VPN is incredibly simple.

1. Install the VPN of your choice. As we've said, NordVPN is our favorite.

2. Choose the location you wish to connect to in the VPN app. For instance if you're in the U.S. and want to view your usual Aussie service, you'd select Australia from the list. 

3. Sit back and enjoy the action. Head to 7Plus and watch the Ravens vs Bengals live stream.
