BC is the only opponent the Stamps have yet to face during the 2015 regular season and the Red and White will be putting their perfect 6-0 home record on the line when they face the Leos.

Calgary leads the West with an 8-3 mark while the Lions are third in the division at 4-6.

This is the latest date the Stamps and Lions have had their first meeting of the regular season in 62 years of head-to-head competition.

The Stamps saw their five-game winning streak come to an end on Saturday as they dropped a 27-16 decision to the Eskimos in Edmonton. The Lions have dropped three of their past four games including Sunday’s 31-18 setback at the hands of the Ottawa RedBlacks at BC Place.

The Stamps have a 4-1 mark against West opponents while the Lions are 3-1 against division foes.

Calgary had the edge in the season series against BC in 2014 as the Stamps won two of the three meetings. BC was a 25-24 winner at McMahon on Aug. 1 but Calgary rebounded to record wins of 14-7 at home on Sept. 27 and 33-16 in Vancouver on Nov. 7.
