Led by the league's top QB, Davis Alexander, the CFL odds have Montreal as a 6.5-point favorite, and my Alouettes vs. Blue Bombers predictions and CFL picks are backing the Als to win big on the road.
Who will win Alouettes vs Blue Bombers: Alouettes -6.5 (-115)
The Montreal Alouettes haven't lost a game since June 20, haven't failed to cover in a game since June 28, and haven't won by fewer than double digits since July 18. Montreal is more than living up to its billing as the Grey Cup odds favorite.
Over their last four games, the Alouettes have beaten opponents by an average of 20.5 points and have put up 46+ in back-to-back outings. With Davis Alexander at the helm, Montreal leads the league in yards per game (456.3) and ranks No. 2 in points per game (36.7).
While the Winnipeg Blue Bombers do have Zach Collaros back in the fold, they've been shaky throughout the season. In games Top 3 scoring defenses, Winnipeg is 1-2 ATS; Montreal is No. 2 in points allowed per game (26.3).
However, the Alouettes opened at -5.5, and if this spread balloons beyond -6.5, I'd have a hard time taking Montreal.
