Elks at Argonauts picks and predictions

Prediction

Argonauts 31, Elks 24

Moneyline

The Elks have not scored more than 21 points in a game this year and are coming off back-to-back home losses, while Toronto (-215) scored 35 in its season-opening win.

Dating back to last season, Edmonton is on a 6-game losing streak.

Nothing in its first 2 games of the season showed that Edmonton can take down Toronto at BMO Field, but there’s no need to bet the Argonauts on the moneyline when you have to wager more than twice what you can win.

PASS.

Against the spread

The Argonauts covered the spread in their season opener. They have won the last 3 meetings against the Elks, winning each time by at least 5 points.

Dating back to last season, 5 of Edmonton’s last 6 losses have been by at least 8 points.

BET ARGONAUTS -4.5 (-110).

Over/Under

The Argonauts’ only game this season had a total of 62.

The total in Edmonton’s opener was 50.

The last 3 meetings have all had totals over 50.

BET OVER 49.5 (-110).

Elks at Argonauts picks and predictions

Prediction

Argonauts 37, Elks 28

Moneyline

The Argonauts had won 6 games in a row before their loss last week. The Elks, after a terrible start to the season, have won 4 of their last 6 games.

Toronto is unbeaten at home and beat Edmonton once earlier this season.

However, the risk of wagering on Toronto (-370) isn’t worth the reward.

PASS.

Against the spread

Toronto is 10-4 ATS overall this season but are 3-3 ATS in their last 6. Seven of their last 8 wins have been by more than 7 points.

Toronto already has a 12-point win over Edmonton this season.

Edmonton has averaged 29.1 points over its last 7 contests. The Elks are 6-9 ATS overall this season and 1-3 ATS in their last 4.

Toronto has averaged 33.7 points in its last 7 games.

BET ARGONAUTS -7.5 (-110).

Over/Under

Their meeting in June had 74 total points.

Edmonton’s last 5 games have had totals of 50 or more.

BET OVER 48.5 (-110).
