The over is 4-1 in Argonauts last 5 games as a favorite. The Tiger-Cats are 9-3-1 ATS in their last 13 meetings in Toronto and 1-3-2 ATS in their last 6 meetings.

The Hamilton Tiger-Cats are playing their best football at the right time, there are no concerns of rust with them, and they bring in one of the best defenses that travels well. The Toronto Argonauts have played their best ball at home this season, they’re well rested, and they’ve won three of the four meetings against the Tiger-Cats this season, which includes three straight. You can make a case for either side here, but it’s hard to bet against the rested Argonauts, at home and give their success this season against Hamilton.
