Creighton is coming into this match with a 22-8 record this season and they are currently sitting in 2nd place in the conference at 13-6. They have been playing very well in their recent games as they have won their last 2 straight as well as 6 of their last 7 games, their only loss in that span coming on the road against St John's right after they pulled off a huge upset win against UConn. They have won 2 of their last 3 games on the road and they are coming off of a 10+ point win against Marquette in their last game so they are going to have some confidence here. They also need this win so they can try to secure the 2nd seed in the Big East Tournament. They are going up against a Villanova team that is 17-13 this season and they have not been great in the conference at 10-9. They have won 2 of their last 3 games but they are coming off of a loss in their last game and they have also struggled to beat the better teams in their conference. They have lost their last 4 straight games against ranked opponents this season, losing twice against Marquette and UConn both home and away. The only win against a ranked opponent in the conference is a win against Creighton earlier this season as Villanova won by 2 points on the road. That was the 1st conference game of the season for Creighton and they are going to be hungry to get their revenge here now that they have been playing much better in recent games and have been heating up toward the end of the season. Creighton will cover the spread in this game.
