<\/a>Blue Bombers vs Tiger-Cats total prediction: Over 57.5 (-110)<\/p>\nWhen Hamilton and Winnipeg met earlier this season, the game went Over by 12.5 points after closing with a total of 51.5. Entering Week 5, Hamilton ranked third in the CFL with 11 explosive plays, while Winnipeg had surrendered the third-most “big plays” to opposing offences.<\/p>\n
Winnipeg is also dealing with several injuries along the defensive line, with Tanner Schmekel and Jake Ceresna both limited in practice this week, leaving Hamilton’s offence in a favorable spot once again.<\/p>\n
Both teams have combined to average 60 total points per game this season, so I would play the Over up to 59.5.<\/p>\n
