The venue changes but the teams remain the same for the second week in a row when the Blue Bombers travel to BC to take on the Lions who they knocked off 37-35 last week in Winnipeg. The Lions on home field are a solid -5.5 point favorite on the spread line while the over/under line is set at 54.5. This Week 17 match kicks off Friday night at 10:00 PM ET on the field of BC Place.

This Friday marks the second game in this West Division home-and-home tilt with Winnipeg drawing first blood last week in a thrilling 37-35 victory over BC as a slight 1.5-point home favorite. The Blue Bombers are now 9-6 SU on the year with an 8-6-1 record ATS. The big concern for this Friday’s game has to be a defensive that was torched for 422 yards through the air in last week’s win along with another 91 yards on the ground. It will be much tougher to come away with a win this time around playing on the road, but they do have a 4-2 edge both SU and ATS in the last six meetings.

BC’s loss dropped its record to 9-5 SU and it is now 10-4 ATS after covering in four of its previous five games. The Lions fell behind early against Winnipeg and costly turnovers kept them from completely closing the gap. The one big thing in their favor is an offense that is averaging 29.7 points a game.
