Ottawa Redblacks at Toronto Argonauts Preview & Picks

Toronto are tipped to cover as they win the East semi-final.

The Argonauts are the team in better form and they have had Ottawa’s number in recent seasons.

  • Toronto Argonauts are 8-2 in the last 10 meetings
  • Toronto Argonauts are 7-3-0 ATS in the last 10 meetings
  • Ottawa Redblacks are 2-6 in their previous 8 games
  • The Over has cashed in each of the last 6 meetings

Head To Head

  • The regular season series was split 1-1
  • Toronto Argonauts won 38-31 when the two teams last met on October 19

Ottawa Redblacks Form

Ottawa go into this game having compiled a 9-8-1 regular season record to finish third in the East Division.

The Redblacks got off to a strong start as they won seven of their first 10 games, losing two and tying the other.

Their form cooled off after that though, as they lost four of their five games before their final bye week of the season.

Ottawa then returned to action with a 19-12 defeat in Montreal, before heading to Toronto for a 38-31 loss to the Argonauts.

The Redblacks did at least wrap up the regular season with a win though, beating Hamilton 37-31.

Toronto Argonauts Form

Toronto enter the playoffs having put together a 10-8 record to finish second in the East Division standings.

The Argonauts failed to string together any lengthy win streaks during the season, but they also avoided any long losing skids.

On only two occasions did they lose back-to-back games, and they ended the regular season winning three of their final four games.

Toronto beat Montreal 37-31 before their final bye week of the season, and then returned to action with a 14-11 win in Winnipeg.

The Argonauts made it three-in-a-row by beating Ottawa 38-31, only to see their streak end with a 31-30 overtime defeat in Edmonton last time out.

Verdict

Toronto have not lost at home to Ottawa in over two years, and given the current state of these two teams we do not expect that to change here.
 
The Argonauts are the better team in better form, so we expect them to cover as they advance.
