The BC Lions and Saskatchewan Roughriders meet Saturday in CFL action at Mosaic Stadium. Here’s a Roughriders vs Lions Prediction. This article will include a Roughriders vs Lions Pick.
BC Lions Betting Preview
The BC Lions need a road win to get back to a .500 record. The BC Lions have lost their only road game this season. Nathan Rourke is completing 61.9 percent of his passes for 573 yards, 4 touchdowns and 1 interception. Keon Hatcher and Justin Mcinnis have combined for 491 receiving yards and 2 touchdowns, while Jevon Cottoy has 14 receptions.
The BC Lions ground game is averaging 85.3 yards per contest, and James Butler leads the way with 139 yards and 1 touchdown. Defensively, BC is allowing 25 points and 325.6 yards per game. Micah Awe leads the BC Lions with 21 tackles, Dewayne Hendrix has 3 sacks and Ben Hladik has 1 interception.
Saskatchewan Roughriders Betting Preview
The Saskatchewan Roughriders look to remain undefeated by snagging their second home win. The Roughriders have won seven of their last eight regular season games. Trevor Harris is completing 72.5 percent of his passes for 806 yards, 5 touchdowns and 3 interceptions. KeeSean Johnson and Dohnte Meyers have combined for 428 receiving yards and 3 touchdowns, while Samuel Emilus has 12 receptions.
The Saskatchewan Roughriders ground game is averaging 122 yards per contest, and AJ Ouellette leads the way with 208 yards and 2 touchdowns. Defensively, Saskatchewan is allowing 27 points and 381.3 yards per game. Jameer Thurman leads the Saskatchewan Roughriders with 22 tackles, Malik Carney has 2 sacks and Rolan Milligan has 1 interception.
Roughriders vs Lions Prediction
The Lions didn’t look good in either game against the Winnipeg Blue Bombers, and the offense has slipped since their opener against the Elks. I question if they can find success on the road. The Roughriders have scored 28 or more points in all three games this season, and they’ve played arguably the best football in the league since the end of last year’s regular season. The Roughriders have covered five straight games and eight of their last 10 games. If the Lions can’t finish drives offensively, the Roughriders should be able to run away with things. I’ll lay the small number with the Roughriders at home.
