Toronto Argonauts Betting Preview

The Toronto Argonauts are 7-6 this year after they defeated the Redblacks by a score of 26-23 last week. Toronto was tied 7-7 at halftime and they were tied 23-23 in the fourth, but they kicked a field goal as time expired for the win.

Elks vs Argonauts Prediction 

Edmonton comes into this matchup on a four game winning streak and they have scored 38+ points in three of those four wins. The Elks offense has been very good, but they continue to be led by their elite defense. Toronto has won three of their last four games and they have allowed 23 points or fewer in all three of those wins. The Argonauts nearly lost to lowly Ottawa last week and I just don’t trust Kelly with his interception issues. Take Edmonton to win on the road.
