However, the Montreal Alouettes are the best team in the league with a defense that travels. In fact, the Alouettes have played some of their best ball overall this season on the road. This will be just the third time this season the Alouettes are favorites of 3 or fewer points, and they’re 11-2 ATS in their last 13 games when favorites of 3 or fewer points. Give me Montreal.
