The Hamilton Tiger-Cats will face the Edmonton Eskimos in the East Semi-Final at Tim Hortons Field on Nov. 13.

The Winnipeg Blue Bombers defeated the Ottawa Redblacks 33-20 on Friday night to improve to 11-7, meaning the Eskimos (currently 9-8) are locked into fourth place in the West Division no matter the outcome of their game with Toronto on Saturday.

The Bombers can still host the West Semi-Final if the B.C. Lions lose to the Saskatchewan Roughriders on Saturday. Should the Leos win, they’ll host Winnipeg at B.C. Place.
