Saskatchewan Roughriders at Ottawa Redblacks Preview & Picks

Saskatchewan are tipped to cover as they return to winning ways.

The Roughriders have dropped the last couple since securing a playoff place, but they are the better team and they have dominated Ottawa in recent times.

  • Saskatchewan Roughriders are 4-1-1 in the last 6 meetings
  • Saskatchewan Roughriders are 5-1-0 ATS in the last 6 meetings
  • Saskatchewan Roughriders are 5-1-0 ATS on the road this season
  • The Under has cashed in 5 of Saskatchewan’s last 7 games

Head To Head

  • Saskatchewan Roughriders won 31-26 when the two teams last met on June 5

Saskatchewan Roughriders Form

Saskatchewan head out on the road having lost their last two games, but having already secured a playoff place with a 10-4 record.

The Roughriders made an outstanding game as they won eight of their first nine games; a run that included two four-game win streaks.

The second of those streaks was ended by a 32-15 loss in Calgary, but they rallied beta Winnipeg 34-30 at home and 21-13 on the road, ensuring their place in the postseason.

Saskatchewan have not tasted victory since that success in Winnipeg on September 8 though.

The Roughriders lost 48-31 to Montreal before the bye week, and then returned to action last week with a 27-25 defeat in Edmonton.

Ottawa Redblacks Form

Ottawa enter this matchup with a 4-10 record, knowing that they simply have to win out to have any hope of snatching a playoff place.

The Redblacks put themselves behind the 8-Ball early in the season as they lost six of their first seven games.

They showed some fight after their first bye week as they followed up a 31-11 win over Calgary with a 46-42 victory in Toronto, but they failed to maintain that momentum.

Ottawa lost 30-27 in Winnipeg and 30-20 to Edmonton, before avoiding a third straight loss by beating the BC Lions 34-33.

The Redblacks quickly returned to losing ways however, falling 38-27 at the Lions and 26-18 at home to Winnipeg.

Verdict

Neither team is in good form right now, but Saskatchewan offer the most reasons for confidence.

The Roughriders have 10 wins in the books and have already downed Ottawa once this season, so we are riding with the visitors.
