CFL Week 9 Expert ATS Picks & Predictions


BC Lions (+5.5)

After handing the Edmonton Elks their eighth-straight loss of the season, the BC Lions appear primed to continue their strong play against a tough Winnipeg Blue Bombers squad. With their offence continuing to impress even without the services of Vernon Adams Jr. coupled with their tremendous defence, the Lions are set for a competitive road clash with the Blue Bombers.

Having crushed the Blue Bombers 30-6 earlier this season, don’t expect to see the Lions fall out of striking distance in this clash.

With a strong game plan and fantastic team chemistry, bank on the Lions to continue their strong 2023 season, covering the 5.5-point spread as an underdog, kicking off your Week 9 bets with a win.

Toronto Argonauts (-8)

The top dog in the CFL, the Toronto Argonauts have their sights set on their seventh consecutive victory to start the season as they take on the Calgary Stampeders on Friday night.

With the Stampeders mediocre play and struggles to maintain consistency throughout their lineup, look for the Argos to easily handle business on the road, covering the eight-point spread as favourites.

Having rarely faced adversity so far this season, the Argonauts have won by eight or more points in each game they’ve played this season thanks to their sensational offence. Set to run up the score once again as they face a Stampeders defence that’s allowed 27.4 points against per game this season, hammer the Argos to cover the spread to win you the bread this evening.



Montreal Alouettes (-2.5)

After capping off Week 8 with a solid victory against the Stampeders, the Montreal Alouettes are poised to repeat their efforts as they make it back-to-back wins at the expense of the Hamilton Tiger-Cats. While the Ti-Cats we successful in pulling off the upset win against the Ottawa Redblacks last week, don’t expect to see the same results against a strong-willed Alouette squad.

While their offence has struggled to produce, the defence of the Alouettes has been terrific. Able to lockdown their opposition in order to maintain reach on the scoreboard, look for the Alouettes to shutdown the porous offence of the Ti-Cats as they pull ahead in the game.

Back the Alouettes to win this weeks tilt, covering the 2.5-point spread as favourites, and netting you a boost to your bankroll with this CFL Week 9 pick.



Ottawa Redblacks (-1)

Hoping to bounce back from their single-score loss from Week 8, back the Redblacks to play their way back into the win column at the expense of the Saskatchewan Roughriders.

After suffering a one-sided beatdown by the Argonauts last week, look for the tough times to continue for the Roughriders as they drop their fourth-straight matchup. With their offence failing to put up points regularly, look for them to have a tough time breaking through the defence of the Redblacks in the final clash of Week 9.

While oddsmakers project this to be a closely-contested battle, bet on the Redblacks to cover as they take down the Roughriders on the road to close out this weeks action.
