A wheel bearing arrangement having an outer ring (12), an inner ring (13), and a seal arranged between the outer ring (12) and the inner ring (13) for the purpose of sealing off a rolling chamber, wherein, in the rolling chamber, rolling bodies (10) roll in a load-bearing manner on raceways of the outer ring (12) and of the inner ring (13), wherein the cover element (32) has a fastening region (28) for the fastening of the cover element (32) radially at the outside to the outer ring (12). It is sought to further improve the encoder protection in a wheel bearing arrangement of said type by virtue of the cover element (32) having a collecting channel (27) which surrounds a joint bell housing (19) and thereby protecting the encoder (14) of the wheel bearing arrangement against fouling.
