The annual post-Labour Day rematch with the Saskatchewan Roughriders goes Saturday at 3 p.m. CT at Investors Group Field.

The Bombers havewon five consecutive games, including last week's 28-25 victory over the 'Riders. The Blue and Gold have improvedtheir record to 6-4 (W-L) on the season andarelooking for their first streak ofsix consecutivewins since 2001.

One thing going against them, however, is their performance on home turf. So far this year, the Bombers are 1-3 at IGF.
