Saskatchewan have failed to cover in their last 5 road games
The Over has cashed in 5 of BC Lion’s last 7 games (1 push)

Saskatchewan Roughriders Form

Saskatchewan enter this matchup on a three-game losing run that has seen then fall to 6-8.

The Roughriders made a promising start to the season as they won three of their first four games.

Their form nose-dived between mid-July and mid-August though, as they lost four times in a five-game spell to drop to 4-5.

Saskatchewan rallied with a couple of big upset wins either side of the bye week, stunning the BC Lions 34-29 before knocking off Winnipeg in overtime, 32-30, but they failed to build on them.

The Roughriders were blown out 51-6 by Winnipeg, before losing 36-27 to Edmonton and 36-28 to Ottawa to effectively end their season.

BC Lions Form

BC have clinched a place in the playoffs thanks to a three-game win streak that has improved their record to 10-4.

The Lions started the season with a three-game win streak that included an impressive 30-6 victory in Winnipeg.

They lost their next outing, 45-24 to defending champions Toronto, but rebounded quickly to win their next three games.

August proved to be a difficult month as BC lost three times in four games, but they have rebounded in September to stay in the fight to win the division.

The Lions started the month with a 34-25 victory in Montreal, and have backed that up with a 41-37 victory over Ottawa and a 37-29 success in Edmonton.
