Als can clinch season series with win over Ticats
Montreal Alouettes eye East lead against Hamilton with Davis Alexander Can Montreal extend its streak and seize the tiebreaker? Get the key matchup edge.
The Montreal Alouettes can take another step toward the East Division lead when they host the Hamilton TigerCats on Sunday night. A win would give Montreal a fourgame winning streak, a sixpoint cushion over Hamilton and the headtohead season series tiebreaker.
Quarterback Davis Alexander has been central to Montreal’s 51 start, leading the CFL in passing yards and producing big plays with no interceptions through six starts. He already guided the Alouettes past Hamilton earlier this season, and Montreal’s defense helped secure that road victory with key turnovers.
Hamilton enters the game at 33 and is adjusting after quarterback Bo Levi Mitchell’s ankle injury. Tre Ford handled the offense in last week’s win over Toronto, but he has not yet beaten Montreal.
