10* UNDER (ASSASSIN)

Two teams in dire need of a victory collide here on Thursday night. Montreal is just 1-4, while Ottawa is 0-5. The Alouettes are 3-2 against the spread, while the Redblacks are 2-3 ATS. Montreal has seen the total go "over" the number in 3 straight, which is significant to note here as the Als have in fact seen the total go "under" the number in 7 of their last 10 after playing to 3 or more straight "overs" in a row. Montreal will be especially eager to get back on the field after last week's collapse, falling 32-31 at home to Edmonton as a 8-point favorite. Ottawa is also coming off a tough loss, falling 25-23 at Hamilton. The Redblacks have been trading high-scoring games, with lower-scoring defensive ones over their last 4 games and I absolutely expect this strong pattern to continue here; the overall situation, combined with these strong trends and numbers all point to the "under" as the correct call in my opinion!
