Ottawa Redblacks vs Montreal Alouettes Prediction
The Montreal Alouettes are probably the better, more consistent team, and they’ve won 6 straight games against the Redblacks. I get it. However, the Ottawa Redblacks have been doubted all year by oddsmakers, and they’re 8-4-1 SU and 8-5 ATS on the season. The Redblacks are also 6-0-1 SU at home. The Redblacks have been disrespected all year, and they continue to win games, even if it’s not always sexy. I’ll continue to back the Redblacks until the fall off takes place, and at this point we’re running out of time.
