<p>
Montreal was one of the lowest scoring teams in the CFL last season with an average of 21.3 points per game, but its defense was almost at the top of the list in points allowed (23.1). It was able to grind out a 17-16 victory against Saskatchewan last Thursday as a seven-point home favorite and with an offense managed just 233 yards through the air with Darian Durant under center. It looks like this week the pressure is once again going to be dialed up on the Alouettes’ defense to keep things close.

Montreal Alouettes at Edmonton Eskimos Prediction

Eskimos’ quarterback Mike Reilly was the most proficient passer in the CFL in 2016 with close to 5,500 yards and he got off to a fast start this season with 315 yards passing and two touchdown throws in last week’s win. John White rushed for 104 yards on 14 carries for an average of 6.12 yards per carry. This is just too much production for Montreal to keep pace with, but my ‘best bet’ pick in this matchup is the UNDER on the total line.
