The Toronto Argonauts (6-0) and Calgary Stampeders (2-5) meet Friday at McMahon Stadium. Kickoff is scheduled for 9 p.m. ET (CFL+/TSN). Below, we analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the Argonauts vs. Stampeders odds, and make our expert CFL picks and predictions.
The Argonauts improved to 6-0 against the spread (ATS) after covering as 10-point favorites with a 31-13 win vs. the Saskatchewan Roughriders at Huskies Stadium in Halifax, Nova Scotia, on Saturday.
The Stampeders failed to cover as 1.5-point underdogs in a 25-18 loss at the Montreal Alouettes Sunday. Calgary is 2-5 ATS this season and has only covered in its outright wins.
Calgary went 2-0 straight up vs. Toronto last season, going 1-0-1 ATS as the Under hit in both meetings.

Argonauts at Stampeders picks and predictions
Prediction
Argonauts 26, Stampeders 15
Moneyline
It’s unlikely that Toronto (-400) would lose to Calgary for a 3rd straight time. However, there’s no need to pay the higher price on the moneyline when the Argonauts should win by margin.
PASS. Lay the points and/or bet the total instead.
Against the spread
Toronto should get its revenge Friday after losing both meetings vs. Calgary last season. The 2022 Grey Cup champions are undefeated ATS this year and continue to outperform expectations.
Calgary has failed to cover in back-to-back games and I see no need to question the Argonauts’ motivation to win by margin Friday after getting blown out 29-2 in the last meeting on October 1, 2022.
Calgary’s home-field advantage also shouldn’t be anything to worry about for Argonauts backers as the Stampeders are just 7-22 ATS in their last 29 home games.
BET ARGONAUTS -8.5 (-110).

Over/Under
The Under has hit in the last 5 meetings between these teams.
The Under has also hit in back-to-back contests for the Argonauts, who have allowed a total of just 28 points over the last 2 games. Look for Toronto’s defense to continue its dominant play Friday and to help the Under cash once again.
BET UNDER 51.5 (-110).
