The Stampeders conclude their pre-season schedule on Sunday with a visit to the Edmonton Eskimos. Kickoff at Brick Field at Commonwealth Stadium is at 5 p.m.

The Stamps are 1-0 in pre-season play after defeating the BC Lions 23-18 on Tuesday at McMahon Stadium. This will be the Esks’ first 2017 tuneup.

The Stamps are 13-4 in pre-season action over a nine-year period starting in 2009 including wins at Commonwealth Stadium in 2010 and 2011.

Calgary swept the 2016 regular-season series against the Eskimos by winning both ends of the Labour Day series doubleheader – 45-24 in the Labour Day Classic at McMahon and 34-28 in overtime in the rematch five days later in Edmonton.

The game will be broadcast on TSN and ESPN3 or you can listen on Newstalk 770.
