Winnipeg Blue Bombers Seeking Consistency

Winnipeg head to the defending champions seeking back-to-back victories for the first time since mid-July.

The Blue Bombers made a slow start to the season as they lost two of their first three games, but they found some form in July as they embarked on a three-game win streak.

They were able to sandwich a 30-21 win at home to Toronto with road successes against Hamilton, 14-13, and Ottawa, 36-34 in overtime.

Winnipeg failed to keep that run going as they lost 52-30 to Calgary and 35-19 to BC Lions at home, but they were able to avoid a third straight loss as they downed Ottawa 33-21.

The Blue Bombers were unable to back that up as they lost 22-19 in Edmonton – although they did rebound to beat Montreal 44-28 last time out.

Saskatchewan Roughriders Eye Back-To-Back Wins

Saskatchewan enter this matchup looking to win back-to-back games for the first time for almost a month.

The Roughriders made a strong start to their defence of the Grey Cup as they won four of their first five games.

They then responded to a 36-34 defeat to Edmonton with a 28-26 road win over the Elks, before downing Ottawa at home, 42-20.

Saskatchewan failed to make it three-in-a-row as they lost 26-19 in Hamilton, and that was followed by a 30-16 loss when they visited BC Lions.

The Roughriders did rebound at home though, as they beat Toronto 28-24 last weekend.

Verdict

WIN Blue Bombers @ SAS Roughriders

Neither team has momentum heading into this matchup, but Saskatchewan do have home advantage.

They have had the edge in recent meetings too, so we are leaning towards the Roughriders in this one.
