Calgary Stampeders at Winnipeg Blue Bombers Betting Preview
The Blue Bombers find themselves in a second straight battle of undefeated teams after knocking off the previously unbeaten British Columbia Lions on the road last week. Now, Winnipeg returns home and finds itself playing the only other remaining unbeaten team in the league.

Winnipeg’s defense stepped up and made some big plays last week, coming away with four turnovers and basically put the game out of reach early. The Bombers ran the ball 29 times and ended with a 39:00-21:00 minute time of possession advantage.
Calgary played some close games before thumping Edmonton last week and will get its first real test of the season in this one. Bo Levi Mitchell isn’t off to his best start, but I’m not about to knock a quarterback who has gone 4-0. He’s making the plays when the Stampeders need them and not making the costly mistakes.
If Calgary can get Ka’Deem Carey going on the ground it will help keep the Winnipeg pash rush from teeing off against Mitchell. The Blue Bombers only recorded one sack against British Columbia, but they did keep Rourke in check.

Calgary Stampeders at Winnipeg Blue Bombers Pick & Prediction
The Winnipeg defense finally showed what it’s capable of last week. After giving up a number of yards in its first three games, Winnipeg held British Columbia to 338 total yards and just 31 yards on the ground. The Blue Bombers face another tough QB in Zach Collaros, who is a steady, but not spectacular signal caller.
There’s plenty of hype to this one, as it will determine who the remaining undefeated team in the league is. It’s tough to bet against Mitchell, but also a bit hard to go against the two-time defending champions in Winnipeg.
