Due to some porous defence on both sides, that game has the highest projected total of the week (52.5 points).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Check out the latest CFL Week 4 predictions for the games beginning Thursday, June 26.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">CFL Week 4 predictions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Best bet: Argonauts\/Redblacks over 52.5 points (-110)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There&#8217;s so much focus on when Chad Kelly will return as QB1 for Toronto. But maybe Argos fans should be asking when (or if) the defence is going to show up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Toronto has allowed 28+ points in all three of its games.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The Argos have the third-worst scoring defence in the CFL (32.0 PPG).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>In the ground game, Toronto is allowing the second-most rushing yards (131.3\/game).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Ottawa has quarterback injury questions of its own, as Dru Brown&#8217;s status is unknown after he missed the past two games. But if Brown isn&#8217;t back, at least the Redblacks know that Toronto&#8217;s run defence has been a sieve. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And the Redblacks have plenty of work to do on defence, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ottawa allowed 30-plus points in its first two games and ranks third-last in total defence (390.3 yards\/game). <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Last week, the Redblacks beat the Stampeders, 20-12, but that game was played in a torrential downpour. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If Kelly and\/or Brown are back under centre, I&#8217;ll feel even better about this play. But with two dreadful defences on the field, I still expect ample scoring regardless.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Key stat:<\/strong> Overs are 8-0 in the past eight matchups between the Argonauts and Redblacks. Each of those games featured at least 59 points.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"cacheembed:115206\">Embed: #115206<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.northstarbets.ca\/sportsbook\/sports-hub\/american_football\">Full CFL betting markets<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">CFL Week 4 best bets<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Alouettes -3 (-110):<\/strong> The Alouettes are the Grey Cup favourites, and deservedly so after a dominant 3-0 start. Each of their wins has come by a double-digit margin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Tiger-Cats, meanwhile, are 0-2 SU and ATS. Sure, they&#8217;re at home and coming off a bye, but Montreal covered as a road favourite in back-to-back weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Last year, the Als went 2-0 vs. the Ti-Cats and outscored them by 27 points. Since September 2022, Montreal is 8-0 against Hamilton (7-1 ATS).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Montreal quarterback Davis Alexander didn&#8217;t practice on Monday or Tuesday, which helps explain this line a bit. But he still has a chance to play, and the Als&#8217; defence is their greatest strength anyway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Davis Alexander didn\u2019t practice again today.
