In the game here the Roughriders are a very balanced team. The Saskatchewan club is bringing in a good passing offense and a so-so rushing offense, but it is enough to keep the opponents defense off balance. The Blue Bombers have been playing good, but their passing defense is not that good and that will definitely make it harder for Winnipeg to get the win here as Saskatchewan can throw the ball around really good. Final Score Prediction, Saskatchewan Roughriders win 31-20.
