BC Lions at Edmonton Elks Preview & Picks

BC Lions are backed to cover as they win on the road.

The Lions have struggled against the spread recently, but they have not allowed a single point in two meetings with Edmonton this season.

  • BC Lions are 2-0-0 ATS in the previous meetings this season
  • BC Lions have out-scored Edmonton 49-0 so far this season
  • Edmonton Elks are just 2-5-0 ATS in their 7 home games
  • Both previous meetings produced under 50.0 total points

Head To Head

  • BC Lions lead the series 20-17 since 2010
  • BC Lions won 27-0 when the teams last met on July 30

BC Lions Form

BC are closing in on a playoff place, having won their last two games to improve to 9-4 on the season.

The Lions raced out of the blocks, winning six of their first seven games with the only defeat coming to defending champions Toronto on the road, 45-24.

They cooled off in August though as they were crushed 50-14 at Winnipeg, and then failed to build on a 37-9 win against Calgary as they lost their next two games.

BC suffered a surprise 34-29 defeat at Saskatchewan, and then returned home for a 30-13 loss to Hamilton.

The Lions have got back on track though, following up a 34-25 victory at Montreal with a 41-37 victory over Ottawa.

Edmonton Elks Form

Edmonton are playing for nothing but pride, despite winning four of their last five games to reach 4-10.

The Elks’ season ended before it started as they lost nine consecutive games before finally getting off the mark in mid-August.

They ran out 24-10 winners at Hamilton, before returning home for a 30-20 victory over Ottawa.

Edmonton failed to make it three-in-a-row as they lost 35-31 at Calgary, but they have not lost since.

The Elks got back to winning ways at the expense of Calgary, 25-23, before heading out on the road to beat Saskatchewan 36-27.

Verdict

BC have battered Edmonton this season, and despite the Elks’ recent improvement we are expecting more of the same.
