Montreal Alouettes vs Ottawa Redblacks Prediction
The Ottawa Redblacks are coming off an outright victory in the big underdog role, so it would be fair to give them a look here. However, the Montreal Alouettes have been so dominant dating back to last season, I’m not sure if you want to step in front of them. The Alouettes aren’t losing games, and they’re 8-1-1 ATS in their last 10 games. The Alouettes have also won 5 straight games against the Redblacks and the last two wins were by double digits. This is also the Alouettes home opener, so you know that place is going to be jumping with this successful team coming back. I’ll lay the touchdown with the Alouettes.
