HAM +5.5 (-105)
Give me the Tiger-Cats to cover here.
Edmonton comes off a bye but has failed to cover in two straight, including a narrow 37-35 overtime win over Hamilton just two weeks ago. The Elks have performed notably worse on the road (4-3) than at home (7-1) this season, while three of five Tiger-Cats wins have come at Hamilton Stadium.

BC -13.5 (-110)
Death, taxes, and the Redbacks losing by multiple scores. This is a monstrous spread, but for good reason.
The Lions have covered in six of their last seven games, including a 45-24 drubbing of the now 0-15 Redblacks. BC is also 5-0 ATS in their last five games as a favorite, and unlike Ottawa, still has seeding to play for, being two games back of Edmonton and one up on Saskatchewan.

o60.5 (-110)
They're calling it the easiest Over of all time.
These teams combined for a jaw-dropping 82 points on July 24th and have cashed the Over in six consecutive meetings, dating back to mid-2024.
Calgary is 13-3-0 on the O/U this season, scoring the most points but allowing the second-most in the league. They've played to the Over in five straight, scoring 37+ in three straight.

MTL -4.5 (-115)
The long-awaited 2025 Grey Cup rematch is finally here.
However, I don't expect the same result as last November. The Als are a perfect 8-0 at home, have covered in three of four and 7 of 10, and have won four of the last five regular-season meetings. They're 11-4-0 ATS on the season.
A minuscule 4.5-point spread is selling the Grey Cup favorites short. Saskatchewan has struggled mightily lately, losing three straight and five of its last seven.
Our experts and prediction models are hard at work analyzing the data. Check back shortly for today's picks, or explore our Computer Picks for inspiration.
The above table shows the result of the last 100 CFL computer picks. This table features important information you can use to shape your Canadian Football League bets, like the public consensus, ATS and totals. Before you throw up your hands in frustration like a center watching his quarterback get sacked 13 seconds after the snap, we'll explain the ins and outs of betting on the CFL.
This amount is the profit (or loss) based on a bettor placing $100 on each of the last 100 CFL picks made by the computer on both the opening and closing lines. "To Win" represents the win based on moneyline bets. "ATS" signifies the win based on wagers against the spread. "Total O/U" shows the amount bettors would win on Over or Under wagers.
Wins are listed first, losses second, and pushes or ties are third. Since there are no ties in CFL moneyline betting, if there is a push listed, that would mean the computer predicted a tie and wouldn't have placed a wager on that game.
At Odds Shark, we want you to have everything you need to make smart CFL wagers, which is why you'll also see the predicted score. The predicted score can give you a hint about which way to bet. For instance, if Hamilton is playing Ottawa and the predicted score is 31.4-18.4 for the Tiger-Cats, you could make a simple moneyline bet. For moneyline bets you would only need to bet on one team to triumph over the other. In this case if you picked Hamilton and they won, you'd win your moneyline bet. On the other hand, if the Redblacks won, you'd lose your bet.
Our supercomputer generates expert picks that can help you cover the spread for every game. Take a gander at our computer predictions and take advantage of our free picks before you place any money on the CFL wagerline.
Because we're usually biased in our opinions, our judgment can become cloudy when it comes to betting on the CFL. The good news is, our supercomputer couldn't give a flying Nanaimo bar if you have a thing for that magical Henry Burris smile. Our computer only cares about data. Plus, Burris is retired, so making a bet on him would be a complete waste of money.
Anyway, our computer knows who's retired, who's starting, which teams are on pace to win their matchups, and which teams could get eradicated by a single point (aka rouge). Instead of relying on analysts and your friend who thinks he knows everything about the Stamps because he went to one game, use our supercomputer to shape your CFL bets.
Nowadays, more and more bettors like yourself are relying on the Odds Shark computers to come up with impartial stats-focused CFL predictions. When the stats are precise, the handicapping measurements and algorithms are solid, then you don't have to worry about our computer making improper predictions. Our computer is reliable like Milt Stegall in his 14 years with Winnipeg.
If you're ready to bet on CFL picks, you first need to find the right sportsbook. The best betting sites offer secure banking, best odds, bonuses, and reliable customer service.
