Montreal Alouettes vs Saskatchewan Roughriders Prediction

The Saskatchewan Roughriders and the free points are worth a look when you consider they’re 5-1 SU and 5-1 ATS on the season. However, the Roughriders haven’t been great offensively, and their secondary has been getting burned. If those things continue, the Roughriders will have issues sustaining this sort of success. The Montreal Alouettes have been sharper on both sides of the ball, and they’re arguably the best defense in the CFL, ranked first in passing defense, total defense and scoring defense. The Alouettes have also had an extra week to prepare. I’ll side with the Alouettes by a touchdown.
