Xavier play well at home and are really picking up their game heading into the tournament and need to win this game to help them in their conference seeding. They have beaten some good teams at home this season so they should get up for this game as they have already beaten Providence at the beginning of the season and have all the motivation to win again. Providence really doesn't get affected if they lose this game as they haven't been great on the road, going 2-6 ATS. This is a tough road spot for them and a better home spot for Xavier.

Best bet: lay the number with Xavier.
