The Stamps (6-1-1) are on a seven-game unbeaten streak including five consecutive victories. They hold a three-point lead over the BC Lions for first place in the West Division heading into Week 10.

The Ticats (4-4) are tied with Toronto for second place in a hotly contested East Division. The Tabbies have logged a lot of kilometres in the first half of the season as this will be their sixth road game of 2016. They’re 3-2 in their first five dates away from Tim Hortons Field while the Stamps are 3-0 at home.

Both clubs are coming off convincing Week 9 victories as the Stamps claimed a 37-9 win at BC on Friday while on Saturday in Hamilton, the Ticats thumped Saskatchewan 53-7.

This is the first meeting of the season between Calgary and Hamilton. In 2015, the Stamps swept the season series with a 24-23 victory at McMahon on June 26 and a 23-20 decision on Oct. 2 in Steeltown.
