Ottawa Redblacks at Toronto Argonauts Preview & Picks

Toronto are tipped to cover as they clinch second place in the East Division.

Not only do the Argonauts have the better offense, but they also have a defense that has been piling up sacks and takeaways over the past few weeks.

  • Toronto Argonauts are 6-2 at home this season
  • Toronto Argonauts are 3-1-0 ATS in their last 4 games
  • Ottawa Redblacks have a 2-6 record on the road
  • The Over has cashed in each of the last 5 games

Head To Head

  • Toronto Argonauts are 8-2 in the previous 10 meetings
  • Ottawa Redblacks won 41-27 when the two teams last met on September 7

Ottawa Redblacks Form

Ottawa head to Toronto with a playoff place secure despite suffering four straight defeats to fall to 8-7-1.

The Redblacks did their good work during the first 14 weeks of the season as they put together an 8-3-1 record that featured a six-game unbeaten run.

Their form nose-dived in the middle of September though, as a 37-21 defeat at Hamilton began a four-game losing skid.

Ottawa then lost 24-12 when they hosted Montreal, before heading to Saskatchewan for a 29-16 defeat to the Roughriders.

The Redblacks’ slump then continued last Monday as they again lost to defending champions Montreal, this time 19-12 on the road.

Toronto Argonauts Form

Toronto go into this game with a 9-7 record knowing that one more win will secure home field advantage in the first round of the postseason.

The Argonauts kicked off the season with back-to-back wins, but consistency has largely eluded them ever since.

They lost four of the next six, before finally stringing together a couple of wins in August, beating Calgary 39-25 and Sasktachewan 20-19 at home.

Toronto’s form dipped again as they lost three of the next four, but they have managed to fend off Ottawa in the East standings thanks to upset wins either side of the bye.

The Argonauts bounced back from a loss to Hamilton with a 37-31 victory over Montreal, and then backed that up by winning 14-11 in Winnipeg.

Verdict

Toronto are the better team in better form right now, so we are predicting a first three-game win streak for the Argonauts this season.
