Betting Odds



Point Spread: Edmonton -1
Total: 58.5

The first game on the CFL Week 9 schedule has the Eskimos versus the Blue Bombers at Investors Group Field. The odds maker has opened Edmonton as a -1 point spread favorite with a total line of 58.5 points.

Edmonton is clearly the top team in the CFL on the field at 7-0 straight-up through the first eight weeks, but there have been quite a few close calls in its 3-4 record against the spread. The Eskimos got past Ottawa last week 27-20 as slight two-point road underdogs to improve to 2-1 ATS on the road this season. The total has stayed UNDER in five of their last seven games played on the road.

Edmonton Eskimos at Winnipeg Blue Bombers Betting Trends

  • Edmonton is 2-4 against the spread in their last 6 games overall.
  • The Eskimos are 6-2-1 against the spread in their last 9 games against Winnipeg.
  • The game total has gone over in 4 of Edmonton’s last 6 road games in Winnipeg.
  • The Blue Bombers are 4-1 against the spread in their last 5 games overall.
  • Winnipeg is 1-8 straight up in their last 9 games against Edmonton.

Edmonton Eskimos at Winnipeg Blue Bombers Prediction

The Blue Bombers have been lighting up the scoreboard lately with at least 33 points in each of their last five games as part of a 4-1 record both SU and ATS. Matt Nichols threw for 267 yards and two scores in last week’s 39-12 rout over Hamilton as two-point road favorites. I do like the OVER in this game despite the high opening line, but my ‘best bet’ pick is to go with Winnipeg handing Edmonton its first SU defeat of the year.
