BC Lions Form
BC head out on the road having resurrected their playoff hopes with seven wins in their last eight games to reach 8-6.
The Lions made a miserable start to the season as they lost five of their first six games, but they sparked this turnaround with a 35-19 win at Winnipeg at the end of July.
They backed that up with a 27-24 win at home to Hamilton, before downing Calgary 30-26 on the road, Saskatchewan 30-16 at home, and Ottawa 45-24 on the road.
BC’s run was ended by a 37-30 defeat in Montreal, but they issued an immediate response by beating the Alouettes 48-29 at home.
The Lions then backed that up last weekend as they beat defending champions Saskatchewan, 31-24.
Toronto Argonauts Form
Toronto entered this week having secured a playoff place with a four-game win streak, but also with a shot at snatching top spot in the division.
The Argonauts struggled for consistency during the first few months of the season, as they were displaced by World Cup games taking place at BMO Field.
They found some consistency last month though, as a 37-22 victory in Hamilton sparked their best run of the season.
Toronto backed that up at home as the downed Ottawa 26-23 before beating Edmonton 24-19.
The Argonauts then made it four-in-a-row last week, and improved to 9-6, with a 30-28 victory at Winnipeg that has left them two games behind Montreal with three games to play.
