For the second week in a row, the Saskatchewan Roughriders (0-3) will match up against the B.C. Lions (1-1). This week's game will be played at Mosaic Stadium in Regina on Friday.

It's been a rough start to the season for the Riders, who have yet to record a win.

Last week, B.C. topped Saskatchewan 35-32. The Riders lost an 11-point lead with two minutes left to play in regulation before falling in extra time.

On a more positive note for Saskatchewan, receiver Weston Dressler was named one of three CFL Top Performers of the Week for Week 3. Dressler caught nine passes for 120 yards, including two touchdowns (all season highs), in their OT loss.

The Lions signed defensive back Eric Fraser on Tuesday, adding veteran experience to the lineup. Fraser spent last season with the RedBlacks, appearing in 17 games and collecting 15 defensive tackles and 12 more on special teams.

Kickoff is at 10:00 p.m. ET.
