The Hamilton Tiger-Cats (7-10) and Ottawa Redblacks (8-8-1) wrap up their regular seasons Friday. Kickoff from TD Place is scheduled for 7 p.m. ET (TSN / CFL+). Below, we analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the Tiger-Cats vs. Redblacks odds, and make our expert CFL picks and predictions.

The Tiger-Cats are coming off a cover as 5-point favorites in a 42-20 win over the visiting Calgary Stampeders Oct. 18 with the Over (52) hitting. QB Bo Levi Mitchell was 24-of-37 passing for 450 yards with 5 TDs and 1 INT.

The Redblacks lost 38-31 as 5.5-point underdogs at the Toronto Argonauts Saturday as the Over (50.5) cashed. Ottawa has lost 5 consecutive games straight up and against the spread (ATS).

These teams have met twice this season. The home team has won straight up and ATS in each outing, while the Over/Under (O/U) has gone 1-1.

Tiger-Cats at Redblacks picks and predictions

Prediction

Tiger-Cats 37, Redblacks 22

Moneyline

The Redblacks virtually have nothing to play for in this spot, as win or lose, they’re still going to play the Argonauts in Toronto for the East Division semifinal Nov. 2. In addition to their lack of motivation, the Redblacks are on a 5-game straight-up/ATS skid, losing by an average of 11 points per game.

The Tiger-Cats didn’t make the playoffs this year, but a victory Friday would make Mitchell the 10th CFL QB to reach 100 career wins. Hamilton is 5-1 straight up/ATS in its last 6 games, and the motivation for Mitchell to make history should give it the edge Friday.

BET TIGER-CATS (-145).

Against the spread

With such a short spread, just lay the -145 on the ML instead of worrying about a 1-point Tiger-Cats victory. There is just a 30-cent difference after the ML went from -125 to -145 and the spread from -105 to -115 Friday morning.

PASS. Bet the ML and/or total instead.

Over/Under

The Over has gone 12-5 in Tiger-Cats games this season and has hit in 5 of their last 6. Mitchell is coming off a 5-TD performance against Calgary in Week 20 and looks poised to win his 100th career game before the season wraps up. I want no part of betting against this Tiger-Cats offense right now.

BET OVER 50.5 (-110).

Hamilton Tiger-Cats at Ottawa RedBlacks odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Sunday’s Hamilton Tiger-Cats at Ottawa RedBlacks Week 4 odds and lines, with expert CFL picks, predictions and best bets.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3011″ ]

The Hamilton Tiger-Cats (0-3) and the Ottawa RedBlacks (1-1) meet Sunday for a Week 4 battle at TD Place Stadium. Kickoff is scheduled for 7 p.m. ET (CBSSN/TSN/CFL+). Below, we analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the Tiger-Cats vs. RedBlacks odds, and make our expert CFL picks and predictions.

The Tiger-Cats have dropped all 3 games to date, while also failing to cover in each outing. Hamilton is coming off a 36-20 loss at Saskatchewan last weekend as a 2-point underdog as the Over (48) cashed.

The Ti-Cats have allowed 32 or more points in all 3 games so far, cashing the Over in each outing. It’s no surprise Hamilton ranks last in the CFL with 33.7 PPG allowed.

The RedBlacks were trounced 47-21 at Montreal last weekend as 6.5-point underdogs as the Over (47.5) easily cashed. That splashed cold water on a 23-19 home win in their season opener vs. Winnipeg in Week 2 as 7-point underdogs with the Under (47.5) hitting.

Hamilton has won 10 straight dating back to Aug. 17, 2019 in this provincial rivalry, while the Ti-Cats covered the spread vs. the RedBlacks in a 4 straight and in 8 of the past 10 meetings. The Under has hit in 3 of the past 4 meetings, too.

Tiger-Cats at RedBlacks picks and predictions

Prediction

Tiger-Cats 25, RedBlacks 22

Moneyline

HAMILTON (-105) is the play on the moneyline as a short ‘dog on the road.

Yes, the Ti-Cats are 0-3, but they’ve pounded the RedBlacks in 10 straight meetings, whether it’s in The Hammer, or the nation’s capital.

Until Ottawa figures out a way to solve the black and yellow, back the Ti-Cats.

Against the spread

Unless you absolutely, positively believe that Ottawa -1.5 (+100) will win, but only by a single point, there is no sense paying more to take Hamilton +1.5 (-120) instead of just playing the moneyline.

AVOID.

Over/Under

UNDER 51.5 (-110) is a strong play despite the fact Hamilton ranks last in the CFL in points allowed. Ottawa has managed just 22.0 PPG in 2 games to date, splitting the Over-Under in its 2 games.

The Under has hit in 3 of the past 4 meetings in this series, and while the RedBlacks could move the ball with some ease against a poor Ti-Cats D, the play is still going low. More than 50 points is a high number.

Hamilton Tiger-Cats at Ottawa Redblacks odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Friday’s Hamilton Tiger-Cats at Ottawa Redblacks Week 8 odds and lines, with expert CFL picks, predictions and best bets.

The Hamilton Tiger-Cats (2-4) and Ottawa Redblacks (3-3) meet Friday at TD Place Stadium. Kickoff is set for 7:30 p.m. ET (CFL+/TSN). Below, we analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the Tiger-Cats vs. Redblacks odds, and make our expert CFL picks and predictions.

The Tiger-Cats failed to cover the spread as 10.5-point home underdogs with a 31-15 loss vs. the Toronto Argonauts last Friday. QB Bo Levi Mitchell (hip) will return Friday after missing the last 4 games.

The Redblacks covered as 4.5-point underdogs in a 43-41 overtime win at the Calgary Stampeders Sunday. Since QB Dustin Crum has become the starter, Ottawa is 2-0 straight up and against the spread.

In the 1st meeting this season between these teams, the Tiger-Cats won 21-13 as 1.5-point home underdogs July 8.

Tiger-Cats at Redblacks picks and predictions

Prediction

Tiger-Cats 23, Redblacks 21

Moneyline

The Tiger-Cats have won 2 of their last 3 games and Mitchell’s return should give them the boost needed to bounce back after getting blown out last time out.

The Redblacks are on a short week and are coming off back-to-back overtime wins. While Ottawa is 2-0 in Crum’s starts, it may be fatigued having to play its 3rd game in 14 days.

BET TIGER-CATS (+105).

Against the spread

Hamilton +1.5 (-110) should cover, but there’s no need to pay the higher price on the spread when the Tiger-Cats should beat the Redblacks straight up for the 9th straight time.

PASS. Bet the moneyline and/or the total instead.

Over/Under

The Under is 4-1 in Hamilton’s last 5 games after failing to cover in its previous contest. The Under has also hit in 6 of the last 8 meetings between these teams and should cash again Friday as Ottawa’s offense comes back down to Earth.

BET UNDER 49.5 (-110).
