<p>
The BC Lions travel to Saskatchewan to take on the Roughriders at Taylor Field on Saturday. Kickoff for the Week 19 game is scheduled for 7:00PM ET. The Lions were easy winners in their earlier match up and the betting line suggests they’ll be victorious again with the BC favored by three points at most sportsbooks. The total line is on the odds board at 52.5 points.

Lions snapped back from a two-game series sweep at the hands of Winnipeg with last week’s 32-25 victory at home against Edmonton as 2.5-point home favorites. This was just their second win (SU and ATS) in their last five games, but they already have the early edge in the three-game season series against Saskatchewan with a 40-27 victory back on July 16 as 1.5-point road underdogs. The one thing BC has done well in its last five games is score points with an average of 32.5 points a game.

Saskatchewan has only won five games this season, but it made a late-season move with four SU wins in a row. That winning streak came to an end last week in a 19-14 loss to Montreal as a 6.5-point favorite. That was the first time the Roughriders closed as favorites in their last 13 games.

BC Lions at Saskatchewan Rough Riders Prediction

This will be the first game in this season-ending home-and-home series against a bitter division rival and I actually like their chances to play the role of spoiler as two-point home underdogs after going 7-1 ATS over their last eight games.
