Redblacks VS Elks Best Bets


Moneyline/Point Spread Pick: Ottawa Redblacks (ML/+1.5)

Poised to put an end to their current losing skid, the Redblacks are our pick to serve the Elks with a reality check as they once again wind up in the loss column.

Entering into tonight’s tilt as slight underdogs, the Redblacks are determined and hungry to get the job done on the road. Having had close finishes against tough competition in recent weeks, look for the Redblacks to power their way past an Elks team that up until this point has shown precious little in terms of upside.

In their previous encounter this season the Redblacks dominated the Elks 26-7 and we envision a repeat performance to occur this evening.

Bank on the Redblacks to get out to an early lead and never look back as they take down the Elks in enemy territory, scoring you a sizeable payday with this underdog moneyline pick.

Over/Under Pick: Under 46.5 Points

While the Elks looked solid offensively in their victory against the Hamilton Tiger-Cats last week, don’t expect to see lightning strike twice as they struggle to produce scoring-drives against the strong defence of the Redblacks.

With the Elks offence having averaged a porous 15.8-points per game in 2023, there’s little rhyme or reason to believe that they will be capable of lighting up the scoreboard against the Redblacks. Inversely, the Redblacks should have little to no trouble putting up points against a defence that has allowed 27 or more points against in four of their last five games.

Hammer the Under as the Redblacks stiffell the offence of the Elks as they sit on their lead, securing an easy lopsided finish in their favour. Bet the Redblacks and Elks to combine for Under 46.5 total points and watch your bankroll rise while the final score stays stagnant.



Redblacks VS Elks Player Prop Bets


Devonte Williams Under 66.5 Rushing Yards (-114)

Having failed to rack up more than 66.5 rushing yards in five-straight contests, look for another quiet evening from Redblacks running back Devonte Williams.

While he came close to hitting the mark in a losing effort against the Montreal Alouettes in Week 11, expect more of the same from Williams in tonight’s duel. While he’s managed to maintain an average of a solid 5.3 rushing yards per carry in over his last five games, his usage rate simply isn’t there in the Redblacks offence.

With mobile QB Dustin Crum taking away several touches that normally would be going to Williams, look for the Redblacks running back to once again churn out a modest stat line against the Elks.

Tre Ford Over 49.5 Rushing Yards (-114)

Having added a new wrinkle into the offensive versatility of the Elks since moving into the starting role, Elks quarterback Tre Ford is set to have another strong outing as a runner, rushing for Over 49.5 yards against the Redblacks.

Coming off of back-to-back outings with Over 49.5 rushing yards, Ford has been dangerous when pulling down the football and using his legs to generate offence. With terrific speed and quickness, Ford excels at finding the openings in the defence for him to barrel through.

With his team once again relying on him to generate the bulk of offensive success, bank on Ford to rush for Over 49.5 yards in tonight’s matchup.
