CFL Week 12 Expert ATS Picks & Predictions


Montreal Alouettes (+8.5)

After capturing their fourth-straight win, look for the Montreal Alouettes to put forth another strong effort as they take on Western Conference juggernauts, the Winnipeg Blue Bombers. With Blue Bombers star quarterback Zach Collaros status for Week 12 still up in the air after suffering a neck injury in Week 10 against the Edmonton Elks, look for the Alouettes to keep things competitive in their upcoming clash.

The Alouettes have been tremendous as of late, utilizing their top-notch defence to command control of the game as well as the lead. Set to face one of the top teams in the CFL, look for the Alouettes and Blue Bombers to kickoff Week 12 with a barnburner that could come down to the final snap in order to decide a winner.

Back the underdog Alouettes to cover the spread against the Blue Bombers on Thursday night, scoring you an easy win as they stay within striking distance of the lead.

Calgary Stampeders (+9.5)

After handing the Toronto Argonauts their first loss of the 2023 CFL season in Week 9, look for the Calgary Stampeders to once again string together a strong performance as they cover the spread against the top dogs in the Eastern Conference.

While their 2023 season has been up-and-down, the Stampeders have maintained strong play against the upper-echelon of the league. After falling to the Blue Bombers last week by a single-point, look for the Stamps to once again put up a fight against stiff competition, covering the spread as underdogs, and netting you a solid payday on your CFL bets this Friday night.



BC Lions (-10.5)

After dropping a high-scoring slugfest against the Saskatchewan Roughriders in their last matchup, look for the BC Lions to take out their frustrations against the struggling Hamilton Tiger-Cats in Week 12.

While they’ve struggled to maintaining consistency in recent weeks, the Lions should have no trouble defeating the a Ti-Cats squad that was squashed by a previously winless Elks squad on home soil. In what will be their first meeting of the 2023 season, expect to see a one-sided beatdown as they Lions best the Ti-Cats at every aspect of the game, running up the score in a lopsided victory.

Back the Lions to score the win over the Tiger-Cats in a feline fight night, covering the multi-score point spread as they get back on track, securing you and easy payday in the process.



Ottawa Redblacks (-1.5)

In a matchup that is sure to be closely contested, look for the Ottawa Redblacks to finally put an end to their recent shortcomings, sending the Edmonton Elks back to the loss column in the final matchup of Week 12.

With the Redblacks coming so close to tasting victory against the Alouettes last week, look for them to finally put an end to their four-game losing skid this Sunday. Having dropped three of their last four games by four-points or less, the Redblacks could be sitting with a completely different outlook on their season had a few plays gone their way instead of their opponents.

As they take on a rejuvenated Elks team, look for the Redblacks to send their opponents back to reality, covering the thin 2.5-point spread as favourites, capping off your Week 12 bets with a win.
