CFL

Montreal has been the more complete team over the season, going 14-4 overall with a 624-476 scoring split and a 9-0 home mark. Winnipeg is 10-9 overall, 5-4 on the road, and has been more uneven away from home. Montreal also won the most recent meeting in Montreal 37-10, while Winnipeg’s recent results show a mix of strong defensive outings and games where the offense was forced into catch-up mode. That combination points to a game script where Montreal can dictate pace and Winnipeg has to work for every drive.
Montreal looks like the better side in this matchup, and the game should tilt toward a controlled, lower-scoring script rather than a shootout. The Alouettes have the stronger season-long point profile, the clean home record, and the better recent result in this matchup. Winnipeg has enough quality to keep things competitive for stretches, but the projection leans to Montreal pulling away late and keeping the combined score below market expectations. Final score projection: Montreal Alouettes 29, Winnipeg Blue Bombers 25.
