Ottawa Redblacks Form
Ottawa head to British Columbia on the back of a win over the Lions last weekend, which improved their record to 4-8.
The Redblacks endured a miserable start to the season as they went into their first bye week on a four-game losing skid that left them 1-6.
The break appeared to do them some good though as they returned to action with a 31-11 upset of Calgary, and they then backed that up by downing Toronto on the road, 46-42.
Ottawa’s winning run was halted by a 30-27 defeat at Winnipeg, and they then fell 30-20 at home to Edmonton before their second bye.
The Redblacks again emerged from a bye with a victory though, as they beat the BC Lions 34-33 at home last week.
BC Lions Form
BC return home looking to rebound from their second consecutive defeat, which dropped them to 5-7.
The Lions enjoyed a winning start to their campaign, but failed to build on the 31-14 success against Edmonton as they lost the next three.
They were able to stop the rot with a 21-20 win in Montreal, and backed that up with a 32-14 success in Edmonton, but they returned to losing ways at home as they fell to Saskatchewan, 33-27, and Hamilton, 37-33.
BC steadied the ship after their first bye week as they won 41-38 in overtime in Hamilton, and they followed that up with a 36-18 victory at home to Montreal.
However, the Lions were unable to maintain that form, sandwiching their second bye week with road defeats to Toronto, 52-34, and Ottawa, 34-33.
Verdict
Ottawa have been covering consistently in recent weeks, and they have routinely covered the number on the road this season.
This Lions defense has given up 33 points or more in five of their last six games, so give us the Redblacks and plenty of free points.
