🏆 Who will win Lions vs. Alouettes?

I like the Alouettes to beat the Lions by two points in Montreal today, meaning there's value on BC's spread at +3.5 (-112). The Alouettes are a +190 betting favorite in the Grey Cup odds, while the Lions are tied with the Argonauts for the fourth-shortest odds at +650, so it makes sense that Montreal is favored at home - the spread is just too high.

Score prediction: Alouettes 32, Lions 30


💰 Lions vs. Alouettes prediction & best bet

Lions +3.5 (-112)

Season-long stats don't work well for rating this Lions team. BC is 6-5 straight up and 5-6 ATS on the season, but this team has been trending upward in recent weeks.

The Lions are 4-0 straight up and 3-1 ATS since Rourke returned in Week 10, and the lone non-cover was in Rourke's first game back. Now that he's comfortable running the offense again, I would argue that the Lions are playing like a top-three team in the CFL. Lions +3.5 (-112) at Caesars is the best line available among the top sports betting apps.

🔥 More Lions vs. Alouettes picks

Over 61.5 (-106)

Montreal is 9-2 to the Over this season, so right off the bat, it's hard to bet Unders in its games.

This line is also lower than I expected it to be, considering how well the Lions' offense has played lately. The Lions have scored 30 or more points in each of their last three games, including a 45-point outburst in Week 13 against the Redblacks in Ottawa.

Before their Week 13 loss to the Blue Bombers, the Alouettes had scored 34 or more points in three straight games, so these are two offenses that have been explosive slately. Over 61.5 (-106) at FanDuel is the best line available among the top sports betting sites.
