The Grey Cup odds-leading Saskatchewan Roughriders have a shot to avenge their only loss this season when they take on the Calgary Stampeders tonight at 7 p.m. ET (TSN, CFL+) from McMahon Stadium in Calgary. With this game essentially being a pick'em, my Roughriders vs. Stampeders prediction is backing the road team behind a big performance from KeeSean Johnson.

📈 Roughriders vs. Stampeders betting odds analysis
These are the two best teams in the league, with both being led by a CFL Most Outstanding Player odds contender at QB, which is why it's no surprise that this is essentially a pick'em. Given the play of Vernon Adams Jr. and Trevor Harris, and both being backed by top-tier defenses, this game is a toss-up, and the betting odds reflect that ahead of kickoff. I don't think either team should be viewed as more than a 2-point betting favorite.

🌾 Roughriders ML (-110) ⭐⭐⭐⭐
The Roughriders have one loss this season, and it was at the hands of the Stampeders, but that game had a strange air around it, literally. It was postponed last minute due to poor air quality, after the players had arrived at the stadium - it was played the next day. This time around, the Roughriders shouldn't start flat, especially with the way they've played since that loss.
Since losing to Calgary, they've won four straight and just hammered Grey Cup contenders in two straight games, beating the Hamilton Tiger-Cats, 29-9, and the Montreal Alouettes, 34-6. The Riders have the best against-the-spread record in the CFL (7-2), and all we need them to do to cash this bet is win, which they've done eight times in nine games this season.
For as good as the Stampeders are, no team is better or more well-rounded than Saskatchewan. The Roughriders are second in the league in points per game (29.1) and yards per game (400.2), with their defense allowing the fewest points per game (20.3) and yards per game (337.1). Plus, Adams will be down his best receiver with Dominique Rhymes out (quad).
If Saskatchewan can win this time around, a $10 bet pays a $9.09 profit.

💰 Best Roughriders vs. Stampeders player prop bet
🔥 KeeSean Johnson anytime TD scorer (+110) ⭐⭐⭐
Scoring could be hard to come by in this game with these being the two best defenses in the CFL, but if the Roughriders are going to win, they need Johnson to continue stepping up. The former Fresno State star is fifth in the CFL in receiving yards (682) and he's found the end zone in two of his last three games.
While A.J. Ouellette (+175) is an enticing anytime TD scorer to bet for the Riders, the star running back hasn't scored in five straight games, and the Stamps have allowed a league-low two rushing touchdowns this season. If Johnson can score, a $10 bet pays an $11 profit.

Who is the favorite to win Roughriders vs. Argonauts?
The Roughriders are a slight favorite, with -110 moneyline odds, but they can still be had at +1 with this being a toss-up between the two best teams in the CFL.
How do CFL spread odds work?
When betting on the CFL, the favorite needs to win by a certain number of points to cover the "point spread" - also known as the betting line. Conversely, the underdog needs to lose by fewer than the points displayed in the spread or win outright to cash. For example, a 3-point favorite would need to win by a field goal or more to reward bettors.
How do CFL moneyline odds work?
When betting on the CFL, the underdog will have the "longer" odds and is typically priced at "plus-money" odds that indicate the profit on a $100 bet. For example, a team with +150 odds would turn a $100 bet into a $150 profit - or a $10 bet into a $15 profit - according to our odds converter.
