Stampeders at Alouettes picks and predictions
Prediction
Alouettes 31, Stampeders 20
The Alouettes, dating back to last season, have won 12 straight games. They are 4-0 and have only played 1 home game.
The Stampeders lost their only road game of the season and have not scored more than 22 after a season-opening 32 points, while the Als average 31.8 points per game.
The Als should get the win, but don’t bet them at -490.
PASS.
Three of Montreal’s wins this season have been by at least 10 points. Opponents have not scored more than 21 this season.
Calgary did not cover the spread in their 1 loss this season.
BET ALOUETTES -9.5 (-115).
Between the 2 teams, 5 of their 7 games have stayed under the projected total.
But Montreal keeps up its scoring pace. If the Stamps reach 20 points, that will be enough.
