Toronto Argonauts at Montreal Alouettes Preview & Picks

Toronto are tipped to pull off an upset in the East Division Final.

The Argonauts have a great recent record against Montreal and they are the team in better form right now.

  • Toronto Argonauts are 5-2 in their last 7 games
  • Montreal Alouettes are 2-4-1 in their previous 7 games
  • Toronto Argonauts are 7-3 in the last 10 meetings with Montreal
  • The Over cashed in 2 of the 3 regular season meetings

  • Toronto Argonauts won 37-31 when the two teams last met on September 28

Toronto Argonauts Form

Toronto go into the East Division Final on a good run of form, having won five of their previous seven games.

The Argonauts, who finished the regular season 10-8, began this good run late in the regular season as they beat the BC Lions 33-17 on the road.

They then bounced back from a 31-33 defeat to Hamilton with a three-game win streak that saw them beat Montreal 37-31, Winnipeg 14-11 and Ottawa 38-31.

Toronto failed to make it four-in-a-row, as they lost 31-30 in overtime to Edmonton in the regular season finale, but a playoff place was already secure at that point.

The Argonauts hosted Ottawa in last weekend’s East Division Semi-Final, and they ran out 58-38 winners to set up this meeting with Montreal.

Montreal Alouettes Form

Montreal enter the East Division Final looking to bounce back from a couple of defeats at the end of the regular season.

The defending champion Alouettes sealed their return to the postseason quickly, as they won 10 of their first 11 games.

That meant that when their form dipped over the final several weeks, it did not even cost them a bye in the playoffs.

Montreal won just two of their final seven games, losing four times and tying once, and they have not won since the 19-12 victory over Ottawa on October 14.

The Alouettes lost their final two regular season games, 27-3 at the BC Lions and 28-27 at home to Winnipeg.

Verdict

Montreal finished with the better regular season record, but Toronto are the team in better form.

The Argonauts have also had a healthy knack for beating the Alouettes in recent years, so we are backing the underdogs in the East Division Final.
