Overview
Montreal sits at 15-4 and has won two straight, following up a 33-23 win over the Winnipeg Blue Bombers on November 7 with earlier victories over the Toronto Argonauts (33-16) and the Saskatchewan Roughriders (44-24), sandwiched around a 12-16 loss at Saskatchewan. The Alouettes have outscored opponents 657-499 on the season.
Edmonton enters at 14-5 on a one-game winning streak, coming off a 28-16 home win over the BC Lions on November 7. Before that, the Elks dropped a 9-16 decision at Saskatchewan, and before that strung together wins over the Winnipeg Blue Bombers (35-27) and the Hamilton Tiger-Cats twice (27-12 and 37-35). Edmonton's point differential sits at 569-453.
These two teams have split their two meetings this season, with Edmonton winning 32-29 at home on June 20 and Montreal answering with a 48-30 win on August 8. Given Montreal's scoring volume and the way the Alouettes have closed the season, the edge here leans Montreal, even with a banged-up roster heading into Edmonton.
Key players
Davis Alexander leads Montreal with 5257 passing yards this season.
Travis Theis paces the Alouettes on the ground with 831 rushing yards.

Keys to the game
Protect Davis Alexander up front, with both Braydon Noll and Nick Callender sidelined at offensive tackle.
Lean on Travis Theis to keep the offense balanced and take pressure off the passing game.
Get Tyson Philpot going downfield, especially with receivers Cole Spieker and Devonte Dedmon both out.
Fantasy angles
Start Davis Alexander with confidence; he has thrown for 5257 yards this season, tops on Montreal's roster.
Tyson Philpot is a locked-in start, sitting atop Montreal's receiving numbers with 1809 yards.
Travis Theis offers reliable production as Montreal's leading rusher with 831 yards.
Sit Jose Maltos Diaz this week; Montreal's field-goal leader is out with a wrist injury and won't be kicking.
Geoffrey Cantin-Arku is worth a spot in tackle-heavy formats, leading Montreal's defense with 89 stops.
Prediction
The market has Montreal as three-and-a-half-point favorites with a total of 56.5, and the line settles on a 30-27 Montreal finish. That number tracks with an Alouettes offense that has outscored its opponents by a wide margin all season, even accounting for an injury list that will test the depth chart in Edmonton. The tape tells the tale here, and it points toward Montreal closing this one out.
