Hamilton Tiger-Cats at Calgary Stampeders Predictions & Tips

Hamilton are tipped to win on the road on opening weekend.

Bo Levi Mitchell is at the controls on an explosive Tiger-Cats offense that can set a scoring pace that Calgary cannot match.

Calgary Stampeders have won just 1 of their last 10 competitive games
The Over has cashed in 4 of the last 5 meetings

Hamilton Tiger-Cats won 42-20 when the two teams last met in October 2024

Hamilton Tiger-Cats Form

Hamilton enter the new season looking to rebound from a disappointing 2024 campaign that saw them miss out on the playoffs.

The Tiger-Cats opened with five consecutive defeats, before finally stopping the rot with a 27-24 upset of Toronto and a 44-29 victory in Edmonton.

They failed to keep that momentum going though, as they lost four straight to leave themselves at 2-9 heading into September.

Hamilton rallied as they won all four games that month to keep their postseason hopes alive, only to lose two of the final three to end their season.

The Tiger-Cats prepared for the new campaign with back-to-back pre-season games against defending champions Toronto, winning 24-16 at home and losing 30-23 on the road.

Calgary Stampeders Form

Calgary also come into the new campaign looking to rebound from a 2024 season that saw them miss out on the playoffs for the first time in two decades.

The Stampeders opened the season with a 32-24 victory over Hamilton, but they failed to establish any consistency over the following weeks.

In fact, they did not string together victories all season long, despite pulling off some upsets along the way.

A nine-game winless run between August and the middle of October ultimately served as a death knell for Calgary’s campaign.

The Stampeders warmed up for the 2025 season by winning back-to-back pre-season games, beating BC Lions 26-16 and Edmonton 31-4.

Verdict

HAM Tiger-Cats @ CAL Stampeders

Calgary’s secondary is a big weakness for them, and that is a big problem here.

We expect Bo Levi Mitchell to throw the rock around and lead Hamilton to an opening game win on the road.
