Blue Bombers vs Lions Prediction
These are two banged-up teams that I’m not excited to back. However, it’s the Lions who are in worse shape, and their offense is nonexistent right now due to playing a backup quarterback. The Blue Bombers have a chance to get some guys back from injury, and they’re due for a breakout performance at home. The Lions aren’t winning and aren’t covering despite being underdogs week after week.
The Blue Bombers are 8-2 SU and ATS in the last 10 games against the Lions. Not a fan of the hook on top of the key number, but the Lions are too injured to back in this spot. Give me the Blue Bombers in a comfortble much needed victory.
