The Toronto Argonauts (6-5) and Ottawa Redblacks (7-3-1) meet Saturday for a Week 14 matchup at TD Place Stadium. Kickoff is scheduled for 1 p.m. ET (TSN/CFL+). Below, we analyze FanDuel Sportsbook’s lines around the Argonauts vs. Redblacks odds, and make our expert CFL picks and predictions.
The Argonauts suffered a 31-28 loss as 6-point favorites at the Hamilton last time out (Sept. 2), snapping a modest 2-game win streak. Despite the recent success, Toronto is 1-3 against the spread (ATS) in the past 4 games, and 3-7 ATS across the previous 10 outings. The Over has cashed in 3 of the past 4 contests.
The Redblacks suffered a 38-12 setback as 3-point underdogs against the BC Lions Aug. 31 in a neutral-site game at Royal Athletic Park. That snapped a 6-game non-losing streak — they were 5-0-1 straight-up (SU) and 5-1 ATS before the 26-point loss. The Under has cashed in 4 of the past 6 outings.
This is the 1st meeting this season between these provincial rivals. Toronto has dominated the series lately, winning 5 in a row, and 9 of the past 10 outings. The Argos are also 5-0 ATS in the past 5 outings, and 8-2 ATS in the 10-game span, which dates back to 2019. The Over has connected in 4 straight meetings, too.

Argonauts at Redblacks picks and predictions
Prediction
Redblacks 29, Argonauts 25
Moneyline
OTTAWA (-110) is a strong play in the nation’s capital. While Toronto has dominated the series of late, this might be the best Redblacks team in the past few years.
This would be a slam-dunk play if not for a complete disappearing act by Ottawa last week against BC in the second end of a back-to-back set.
However, Toronto has dropped 3 in a row on the road, while going 1-4 SU away from home this season, too.
Against the spread
BACKING OTTAWA -1.5 (+100) at even-money is an even better play than the moneyline, unless you strongly believe Toronto +1.5 (-120) is going to win by just a single point.
The Redblacks are 5-2 ATS in the past 7 games. At home, they’re 5-1 ATS this season. BET OTTAWA -1.5 (+100) and feel confident doing so.
So we don’t bet double up on Ottawa, divvy up 1½ units between the Redblacks moneyline and their spread.
Over/Under
OVER 51.5 (-110) is the lean, but go lightly with a half-unit play at most.
The Over has hit in 2 of the past 3 games for the Redblacks, while the total has gone high in 3 of the previous 4 outings for the Argos. And, again, the Over is 4-0 in the past 4 meetings in this series.
