East final: Toronto Argonauts at Montreal Alouettes odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Saturday’s Toronto Argonauts at Montreal Alouettes odds and lines, with expert CFL picks, predictions and best bets.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4141″ ]

The Toronto Argonauts and the defending Grey Cup champion Montreal Alouettes meet in the East final Saturday. Kickoff from Percival-Molson Memorial Stadium is scheduled for 3 p.m. ET (CFL+ / TSN). Below, we analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the Argonauts vs. Alouettes odds, and make our expert CFL picks and predictions.

The Argonauts are coming off a 58-38 win as 6.5-point favorites over the visiting Ottawa Redblacks in the East semifinal Nov. 2 with the Over (53) hitting. QB Chad Kelly was 18-of-20 passing for 358 yards with 4 TDs while rushing for another.

Toronto went 10-8 in the regular season. Once Kelly rejoined the team in Week 12 — after serving a 9-game suspension — the Argonauts went 5-4 against the spread (ATS) and 6-3 Over/Under (O/U). Kelly finished with 10 passing TDs and 8 INTs in 9 regular-season games.

The Alouettes finished first in the division with a 12-5-1 regular-season record. Before they clinched an opening-round playoff bye in Week 17, they were 8-6 ATS and 6-8 O/U. QB Cody Fajardo threw 16 TDs and 7 INTs in 14 games in the regular season.

The Argonauts went 2-1 straight up/ATS against the Alouettes this season, with the O/U also going 2-1. In the most recent meeting Sept. 28 — after Montreal had already clinched first in the East — Toronto won 37-31 as a 2-point home underdog while the Over (51.5) cashed.

In last year’s East final, Montreal upset Toronto 38-17 as a 10.5-point road underdog with the Over (51.5) hitting. The Alouettes recorded 9 turnovers, including 4 INTs by Kelly.

Argonauts at Alouettes picks and predictions

Prediction

Argonauts 33, Alouettes 27

Moneyline

The Argonauts are 4-1 straight up and 5-0 ATS in their last 5 games, and the 1 loss was a 31-30 setback in OT at the Edmonton Elks Oct. 25 while resting multiple key starters.

The Alouettes have been cruising over the last 4 games, going 1-3 straight up, after clinching first in the East so early into the season. It’ll be too hard for them to ramp up the intensity all of a sudden, especially against an Argos team that they embarrassed in the East final last season.

BET ARGONAUTS (+100).

Against the spread

Taking 2.5 isn’t worth it when you can play the Argonauts straight up at plus money. If this number hits 3 at any point, then that’s a different story.

At 2.5, PASS. Bet the ML and/or total instead.

Over/Under

The Over has hit in 3 straight Argonauts games, with Toronto putting up 30 or more points in each outing. The Argonauts are 5-1 O/U in their last 6 games and have scored 30 or more in 6 of their last 7.

The Over has cashed in 3 of the last 4 meetings between these teams. With Toronto coming off a 58-point outing in the East semifinal, I want no part of betting the Under in this spot.

BET OVER 52.5 (-110).

Winnipeg Blue Bombers at Montreal Alouettes odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Saturday’s Winnipeg Blue Bombers at Montreal Alouettes Week 21 odds and lines, with expert CFL picks, predictions and best bets.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4141″ ]

The Winnipeg Blue Bombers (10-7) and Montreal Alouettes (12-4-1) wrap up their regular seasons Saturday. Kickoff from Percival Molson Memorial Stadium is scheduled for 3 p.m. ET (TSN / CFL+). Below, we analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the Blue Bombers vs. Alouettes odds, and make our expert CFL picks and predictions.

The Blue Bombers were idle last week. Before their week off, they had their 8-game winning streak snapped in a 14-11 home loss to the Toronto Argonauts Oct. 11 as 4-point favorites. They have clinched a playoff berth and lead the Saskatchewan Roughriders by a half-game in the West Division.

The Alouettes have clinched the East Division, but are 2-3-1 in their last 6 games. They were 3-point road underdogs against the BC Lions Oct. 19 and lost 27-3.

These teams last played June 6 in Winnipeg. Montreal won 27-12 as a 7.5-point underdog.

Blue Bombers at Alouettes picks and predictions

Prediction

Blue Bombers 24, Alouettes 20

Moneyline

Winnipeg, the loss 2 weeks ago aside, is rested and the much hotter team between the 2, winning 8 of its last 9 games.

The Alouettes have only 2 wins in their last 6 games. They have failed to score 20 points in 3 of their last 5 games.

Winnipeg should get the win, but as heavy favorites, the -350 odds make any moneyline bet on the favorites not good.

PASS.

Against the spread

Winnipeg’s last 3 wins have been by more than a touchdown.

The Alouettes have been underdogs only 3 times this season. They are 2-1 ATS in those games.

BET ALOUETTES +7.5 (-110).

Over/Under

Four of the last 5 for Montreal have not even reached 40 total points.

Four of the last 5 for Winnipeg have not reached 46.

BET UNDER 45.5 (-110).

The Montreal Alouettes (12-3-1) and BC Lions (8-9) meet Saturday. Kickoff from BC Place is scheduled for 7 p.m. ET (CFL+/TSN). Below, we analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the Alouettes vs. Lions odds, and make our expert CFL picks and predictions.

The Alouettes have clinched the East Division title and have the best record in the league. They are 2-2-1 in their last 5 games, although they are coming off a 19-12 home win over the Ottawa Redblacks Monday, covering as 4.5-point favorites.

The Lions have dropped 3 of their last 4 games and are coming off a 39-8 loss at the Saskatchewan Roughriders Oct. 12, failing to cover as 2.5-point underdogs. They have clinched a playoff berth.

In a Sept. 6 meeting, BC won 37-23 in Montreal as a 3.5-point underdog.

Alouettes at Lions picks and predictions

Prediction

Alouettes 34, Lions 24

Moneyline

The Lions have lost 3 of 4. They have allowed over 30 points in all 3 losses.

The Alouettes are 6-1-1 on the road this season, while BC is only 4-3 at home.

Montreal has held opponents to under 20 points in 3 of the last 4 games and 4 of the last 6.

BET ALOUETTES (+125).

Against the spread

All 9 of Montreal’s covers have been outright wins. It is 2-0 straight up and ATS as an underdog.

And since you get plus odds on the moneyline, that is the bet you should make.

PASS.

Over/Under

Only 1 of the last 4 games for Montreal have surpassed 48 total points, but 6 of the last 7 for the Lions have had totals in the 50s or higher.

The Sept. 6 meeting had 60 total points.

Ottawa Redblacks at Montreal Alouettes odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Monday’s Ottawa Redblacks at Montreal Alouettes Week 19 odds and lines, with expert CFL picks, predictions and best bets.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4141″ ]

Week 19 concludes Monday with the Ottawa Redblacks (8-6-1) on the road taking on the Montreal Alouettes (11-3-1). Kickoff from Percival Molson Memorial Stadium is at 1 p.m. ET. Below, we analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the Redblacks vs. Alouettes odds, and make our expert CFL picks and predictions.

The Redblacks have clinched a playoff berth despite having lost 3 games in a row and 4 of their last 5. They did not play last week but lost their previous game 29-16 on the road at Saskatchewan, failing to cover the 4-point spread as underdogs.

Montreal has clinched the East Division title already. The Alouettes have only won 1 of their last 4 games, going 1-2-1. They were also idle last week and last played Sept. 28 when they lost at Toronto 37-31 as 2-point favorites.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4132″ ]

Redblacks at Alouettes picks and predictions

Prediction

Alouettes 27, Redblacks 20

Moneyline

The records of both teams suggest that the Alouettes should be the easy choice. Plus, Ottawa has lost 3 straight and 4 of 5 and has surpassed 21 points only 1 time in its last 5 games.

The Alouettes have beaten the Redblacks twice this season — 47-21 in Montreal in June and 24-12 in Ottawa Sept 21.

Montreal should win, but the moneyline price of -225 is not worth the action.

PASS.

Against the spread

The Alouettes are 8-7 ATS this season, as are the Redblacks. Both wins over the Redblacks have been by 12 points or more.

The Redblacks’ last 4 losses have been by double digits.

BET ALOUETTES -4.5 (-110).

Over/Under

The last meeting of the 2 teams, the total was 36 points.

Ottawa’s last 2 games have not surpassed 45 total points.

Three of the last 5 for Montreal have not reached 48 total points.

Montreal Alouettes at Toronto Argonauts odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Saturday’s Montreal Alouettes at Toronto Argonauts Week 17 odds and lines, with expert CFL picks, predictions and best bets.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4141″ ]

The Montreal Alouettes (11-2-1) and Toronto Argonauts (7-7) meet for a Week 17 matchup Saturday at BMO Field. Kickoff is scheduled for 7 p.m. ET (TSN/CFL+). Below, we analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the Alouettes vs. Argonauts odds, and make our expert CFL picks and predictions.

The 1st-place Alouettes bounced back from a 19-19 tie against the Calgary Stampeders in Week 15 with a 24-12 road win against the Ottawa Redblacks, covering as 3-point favorites. That halted an 0-3 against-the-spread (ATS) skid. The Under has cashed in 3 of the past 4 outings.

The Argonauts suffered a 33-31 loss against the Hamilton Tiger-Cats in Week 16 as 6.5-point favorites as the Over (52) cashed. The Argos have dropped 3 of the past 4 games, while going 1-4 ATS in the previous 5 outings. The Over is 3-1 in the past 4 games and 5-2 across the past 7 contests.

These teams have split the season series so far. Montreal won 30-20 at Toronto June 28 as a 3-point favorite as the Under (50.5) cashed, while the Argos picked up a 37-18 road win July 11 at Molson Memorial Stadium, cashing as 7-point underdogs as the Over (49.5) hit.

Alouettes at Argonauts picks and predictions

Prediction

Alouettes 29, Argonauts 25

Moneyline

The ALOUETTES (-130) are a solid play in this game. The road team has won each of the meetings this season, and the visitor is a perfect 4-0 straight up dating back to Sept. 15, 2023.

Montreal comes with a cheap price tag for the No. 1 team in the CFL against a .500 team. Take advantage.

Against the spread

Back the ALOUETTES -1.5 (-110) laying the little bit of points on the road. Montreal is 3-1 ATS in the past 4 meetings with the rival Argonauts +1.5 (-110). And while the Als are just 1-3 ATS in the past 4 games, they’re still an impressive 5-3 ATS across the past 8 outings.

The Argos just cannot seem to get anything going on a consistent basis. They’ve dropped 3 of the past 4 outings, while going 1-4 ATS in the past 5 games. Back the better team, and that’s easily the Als.

Over/Under

OVER 51.5 (-110) is the lean, but go with a half-unit play at most.

The Over has hit in 3 of the past 4 games for the Argos, going for 27 or more points in 4 in a row and 5 of the past 6 outings. And defensively, Toronto has coughed up 31 or more points in 3 of the past 4 games and 25 or more points in 5 of the previous 7 contests.

For the Alouettes, while the Under is 3-1 in the past 4 outings, the Over and Under have split 3-3 across the past 6 games. Go lightly on the Over.

Montreal, the only team in the league that has already clinched a playoff berth, played to a 19-19 tie at the Calgary Stampeders as 6-point favorites Sept. 14. It has gone 0-1-1 in its last 2 games after a 5-game winning streak July 25-Aug. 25.

The Redblacks have lost 2 of their last 3 games. They are coming off a 37-21 loss at the Hamilton Tiger-Cats as 3-point favorites Sept. 14 with the Over (53.5) cashing.

Prediction

Redblacks 28, Alouettes 24

Moneyline

The Alouettes have not lost on the road this season (5-0-1), while OTTAWA (+135) is unbeaten (6-0-1) at home.

Montreal has only scored between 19 and 23 points in their last 3 games, while Ottawa has scored 31 or more in 3 of their last 5.

BET REDBLACKS (+135).

Against the spread

Montreal is 0-3 ATS in its last 3 games.

Below, we analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the Alouettes vs. Stampeders odds, and make our expert CFL picks and predictions.

Montreal has the best record in the CFL and has clinched a playoff berth but is coming off a loss that snapped a 5-game winning streak. The Alouettes lost last week 37-23 at home to BC as 3.5-point favorites. The Over (49) cashed in.

The Stamps have lost 4 straight games and 2 in a row to Edmonton. Last week, they lost to the Elks 37-16 on the road, failing to cover the 4.5-point spread as underdogs. The Over (51) cashed in.

Alouettes at Stampeders picks and predictions

Prediction

Alouettes 31, Stampeders 20

Moneyline

Montreal beat Calgary in July at home 30-26.

The Stamps have gone 2-6 since then. They have allowed 31 or more in all 4 games of their skid, allowing an average of 35.5 per game.

Montreal is undefeated on the road (5-0), but Calgary is 4-2 at home. The only losses came after 5-game winning streaks.

Seems far-fetched to think they will lose 2 in a row, but there is no reason to bet them at -250.

PASS.

Against the spread

Five of Montreal’s wins have been by 4 or fewer points.

Four of the Stamps’ last 5 losses were by double figures. They have failed to cover the spread in their last 5 losses.

BET ALOUETTES -5.5 (-110).

Over/Under

Three of the last 4 for the Alouettes have had totals of 50 or more.

Their 1st meeting this season had 56 total points.

The Stamps’ last 5 games have all hit the Over with at least 50 points.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3011″ ]

The Week 14 CFL schedule kicks off Friday with the BC Lions (6-6) on the road to face the Montreal Alouettes (10-1). Kickoff from Percival Molson Memorial Stadium is at 7:30 p.m. ET. Below, we analyze FanDuel Sportsbook’s lines around the Lions vs. Alouettes odds, and make our expert CFL picks and predictions.

The Lions have been streaky. After a 4-game winning streak earlier this season, they lost 5 games in a row. That streak ended last week when they beat the Ottawa Redback 38-12 sat home, covering the 3-point spread as favorites while the Under (51.5) cashed in. They are tied for 1st place in the West Division with the Winnipeg Blue Bombers.

The East Division-leading Alouettes have won 5 straight games for the 2nd time this season. They are coming off a 21-17 home win over the Edmonton Elks, failing to cover the 7-point spread as favorites. The Under (51) cashed in.

Elks at Alouettes picks and predictions

Prediction

Alouettes 34, Elks 30

Moneyline

Montreal starting QB Cody Fajardo returns to the lineup after missing 4 weeks with a hamstring injury. That will bode well for the offense because the defense will have its hands full with an Edmonton offense that has scored 40.7 points per game over the last 3 games and has scored 28 or more in 4 straight games 5 of their last 6.

But Montreal has allowed the fewest points in the league so they should pick up in the win and end the Elks’ winning streak.

But with -335 odds, don’t touch the moneyline.

PASS.

Against the spread

The Elks are 6-4 ATS and have covered the spread in 3 straight games while the Alouettes are 7-3 ATS and 4-0 ATS in their last 4.

Edmonton is the highest-scoring team, especially over their last 4 games, while Montreal has the best defense.

With Edmonton rolling, this should be a competitive game.

BET ELKS +7.5 (-120).

Over/Under

Three of the last 4 games for Edmonton have surpassed 51 total points. The Alouettes haven’t scored fewer than 27 points over their last 3 games and the Elks have scored 28 or more in 4 straight.

BET OVER 51.5 (-110).

Montreal Alouettes at Saskatchewan Roughriders odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Friday’s Montreal Alouettes at Saskatchewan Roughriders Week 11 odds and lines, with expert CFL picks, predictions and best bets.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3011″ ]

The Montreal Alouettes (8-1) and Saskatchewan Roughriders (5-3-1) meet at Mosaic Stadium Friday. Kickoff is scheduled for 9 p.m. ET (CBS Sports Network/TSN). Below, we analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the Alouettes vs. Roughriders odds, and make our expert CFL picks and predictions.

The Alouettes are coming off a cover as 7-point favorites in a 33-23 win over the visiting Hamilton Tiger-Cats Saturday with the Over (49.5) cashing. QB Davis Alexander was 17-of-24 passing for 247 yards and 2 TDs. Alexander will get the nod once again Friday; however, QB Cody Fajardo (hamstring) will dress for the 1st time in a month to serve as the backup.

The Roughriders covered as 3-point road underdogs in a 22-22 tie with the Ottawa Redblacks Aug. 8 as the Under (48.5) hit. While Saskatchewan is 0-2-1 straight up in its last 3 games, it will be much healthier Friday with QB Trevor Harris (MCL), RB AJ Ouellette (hip) and LB Jameer Thurman (elbow) returning.

In a July 25 meeting, Montreal covered as a 3.5-point home favorite in a 20-16 win over the Roughriders with the Under (47.5) hitting. Alexander came in at halftime — in relief of struggling QB Caleb Evans — and led the Alouettes in a 13-point comeback on 15-of-18 passing for 178 yards and 2 TDs. QB Shea Patterson (21 of 33, 222 yards) was the starter for Saskatchewan in place of the injured Harris.

Alouettes at Roughriders picks and predictions

Prediction

Roughriders 36, Alouettes 23

Moneyline

The ROUGHRIDERS (+120) should be upgraded with the return of Harris, Ouellette and Thurman. Saskatchewan is rolling out practically the same lineup that started the season 3-0 straight up and ATS, while Montreal is starting a backup QB — who has played well but is due for some regression — and will be without an important target in Philpot (5 TDs in 2024).

BET ROUGHRIDERS (+120).

Against the spread

Roughriders +2.5 (-110) is an OK wager for the ultra-conservative bettor, but the ML at plus odds is the more attractive play.

PASS. Bet the ML and/or total instead.

Over/Under

Harris had the Roughriders start the year 3-0 to the Over. While he is coming off an MCL injury, his return combined with Ouellette back in the lineup should reinvigorate Saskatchewan’s offense, making it look much more like the team that was averaging 32.7 points in the 1st 3 games of the season.

BET OVER 51.5 (-105).

You may love betting on sports, but until college football and the NFL seasons officially start, the pickings can get slim. You can fill some of that time and scratch that itch at online casinos and enjoy slots, blackjack, video poker and more.
