Saskatchewan Roughriders vs Montreal Alouettes Prediction

The Saskatchewan Roughriders at home are worth a look, but they’ve fallen off the wagon over the last month or so, and they’re hard to trust against above average teams at the moment. The Roughriders can’t run the football and their defense is awful agaisnt the pass. The Montreal Alouettes continue to make a case as the best team in the CFL, as they’re above average defensively and have the best scoring offense. The Alouettes also beat the Roughriders a couple of weeks ago. The Alouettes are too consistent to bet against. I’ll lay the small number with Montreal on the road.
