The Hamilton Tiger-Cats head to McMahon Stadium in Calgary on Saturday at 3 p.m. ET (TSN), in hopes of avenging a Week 9 loss to the Calgary Stampeders.
The CFL odds have Calgary as a 5.5-point favorite against a Hamilton team without Bo Levi Mitchell, and my Tiger-Cats vs. Stampeders predictions and CFL picks expect a repeat performance of the matchup from earlier this month.
Who will win Tiger-Cats vs Stampeders: Stampeders -5.5 (-110)
Although both Vernon Adams Jr. and Dedrick Mills were banged up last week, head coach Dave Dickenson said both are "trending positively."
With it sounding like both are good to go for the Calgary Stampeders, the Hamilton Tiger-Cats are in trouble.
Calgary has the most potent offense in the CFL, averaging a league-high 37.8 PPG.
Adams leads the league in TD passes (22), while Mills is Top-4 in rushing yards (756), and all five of their top wide receivers have 300+ receiving yards.
Hamilton's defense has been struggling and gave up 44 to the Stamps a few weeks ago.
And without Bo Levi Mitchell, the Tiger-Cats can't keep up with opponents ... they've scored more than 24 just once in their last eight games.
Calgary is the play as long as the spread stays below a touchdown (-6.5 or better).

Tiger-Cats vs Stampeders total prediction: Over 60.5 (-110)
No team loves playing in high-scoring games more than the Stampeders. They're the only team in the league averaging more than 35 PPG and allowing more than 30 PPG.
That's helped them hit the Over in eight of 10 games this season.
Although the Tiger-Cats don't have Mitchell, they should only need to score around 24 points for this Over to be in good shape. Hamilton has allowed 31.5 PPG over its last seven outings.
In four games this year, the Stampeders have scored 44+ points, which includes against Hamilton in Week 9.
But with how unreliable the Tiger-Cats' offense is, the Over will be tough to justify if the game total climbs any higher.
COVERS INTEL: In Calgary and Hamilton's last five meetings, the Stampeders are 4-1 ATS and the Over is 5-0.Tiger-Cats vs Stampeders same-game parlay
When the Stampeders cover, they tend to hit the Over. Over their last eight games, Calgary is 4-4 ATS and has hit the Over in all four games in which it has covered.
Without Mitchell at QB, I'm more confident in Calgary covering than hitting the Over, but with how Hamilton's defense has looked, the Stamps should be able to do both.
