The Edmonton Eskimos and Ottawa Redblacks are playing live on the CFL schedule live from TD Place Stadium in Ontario and the matchup starts past 7:30 pm ET as the east and west teams face off in the Canadian Football League and the matchup is streaming live from ESPN and the WatchESPN website through ESPN3.com and has the Eskimos coming in playing very well heading into Friday.

These two teams played once already this season and that was a nice win for the Eskimos at home and now Edmonton hits the road for this matchup and it should be another good one for them barring an upset. The team is favored in this game and they come in at 5-1, while the Redblacks have the exact opposite record and they are playing to try and turn their season around after the way things have started up and they only have one win on the year.

Mike Reilly at quarterback is a player to watch and he has put up some solid numbers this season and he will be the main key for the Redblacks. Reilly has speed and he is a dual threat, as he put up nearly 50 yards on the ground last time they played and he also had over 250 passing yards and three touchdowns and now he has the chance to get another win. Reilly ranks in the top 10 in the CFL in rushing and he has the chance to add even more on Friday night and this matchup is big for him and the team in their own division.

Amazingly with the records the two teams have the Eskimos and the Redblacks have the same offensive efficiency in the red zone and that could help bridge the gap in this game. The Eskimos have been much better overall and they should win this matchup. The west division has the Calgary Stampeders in first place with the Edmonton Eskimos and the Winnipeg Blue Bombers, but the bombers have three losses and all three have 10 points right now.

The Eskimos have been one of the league leaders in offense and they are leading the BC Lions and Saskatchewan. The east division has Toronto leading and they are ahead of Hamilton, while Ottawa and Montreal are next in the standings. The week is moving into the weekend and there will be two more games on Saturday as the CFL schedule picks up and the Eskimos have been very impressive and they are looking to get another win to stay up in the division standings.
