Toronto Argonauts Form

Toronto head to Winnipeg looking to repeat last week’s win over the Blue Bombers, which was only their second victory of the season so far.

The defending champion Argonauts made a rough start to the campaign as they opened with three consecutive defeats, losing 28-10 at Montreal, 29-19 to Calgary and 39-32 to Saskatchewan.

They finally got their first win on the board with a 29-16 victory in Ottawa, but failed to back that up as they lost the next two.

Toronto were beaten 51-38 at home by Hamilton, before heading to Montreal for a 28-25 defeat to the Alouettes.

The Argonauts did avoid three consecutive losses however, as they beat Winnipeg 31-17 at home.

Winnipeg Blue Bombers Form

Winnipeg return home in need of a morale-boosting win, having lost three straight games to fall to 3-3.

The Blue Bombers had a bye in Week 1, but when they finally kicked off their campaign they raced out of the blocks.

They won back-to-back meetings with the BC Lions, winning 34-20 at home and 27-14 on the road, before downing Edmonton 36-23.

Winnipeg have not won since though, starting this slide with a 37-16 loss in Calgary prior to their second bye week.

The Blue Bombers then returned to action with a 41-20 defeat to Calgary, before heading to Toronto for a 31-17 defeat to the Argonauts.

Verdict

Toronto’s title defence is not going well, but they have been a solid spread bet recently.

They also boast an excellent knack for covering the number against the Blue Bombers, so give us the Argonauts and the free points.
