Montreal Alouettes Form

Montreal enter this game having rebounded from their first loss of the season to improve to 6-1.

The Alouettes began their defence of the Grey Cup crown with a five-game win streak, starting with a 27-12 victory in Winnipeg.

They backed that up with a 23-20 victory in Edmonton, before downing Ottawa 47-21 in their opening home game of the season.

Montreal then won 30-20 in Toronto and 30-26 at home to Calgary, before seeing their run finally end with a 37-18 defeat to Toronto.

The Alouettes responded to that after the bye though, running out 20-16 winners when they entertained Saskatchewan.

Hamilton Tiger-Cats Form

Hamilton come into this matchup having kick-started their season with a couple of victories since the bye.

The Tiger-Cats dropped their season opener in Calgary, 32-24, and it took them several weeks to finally stop the rot.

They suffered back-to-back defeats to Saskatchewan, losing 33-30 at home and 36-20 on the road, before heading to Ottawa for a 24-22 defeat.

Hamilton’s skid reached five games with a 44-28 loss to the BC Lions before the bye, but they finally got off the mark when they returned to action.

The Tiger-Cats beat Toronto 27-24 at home, and then backed that up a week later when they visited Edmonton to down the Elks, 44-28.
