Point Spread: 16.00 | -104.00 DePaul (Away)
Result: Loss
Point Spread: 16.00 | -104.00 DePaul (Away)
Result: Loss
T.M. Selection: DePaul.
I like DePaul to cover the spread against Villanova in this game on Tuesday. DePaul have really been struggling since the start of January, they have only won 1 game in their previous 8. They have looked better in their games lately though and I think they are going to start turning things around soon and start winning more games breaking out of this funk they are in. Their previous 3 games have been 1 win for them, 1 loss at home by 1 point to Xavier who is having a great year, and a bad loss to Creighton in their most recent game where they lost by 13 points. They were looking much better before that loss to Creighton though and I think they are going to bounce back with a much better performance here. Despite being so bad lately and losing a lot of games, DePaul is not really getting blown out in their losses with a lot of them being by less than 10 points and only 1 of their losses in their previous 8 games was by 16+ points. They have already played Villanova earlier this year and they lost that game at home by 15 points but that was right after they were coming back from a covid break and Villanova caught them when they were at their worst still recovering from the illness. I think they have been playing much better and I expect them to put up more of a fight here and keep this game much closer than their last meeting. Villanova has also looked a lot better in their games since hitting conference play but lately they have not been as strong and I don't see them blowing out DePaul here. Villanova has only won 1 game by this many points in their previous 5 games and most of their conference wins have been closer games by less than 10 points. They just beat Georgetown in their most recent game but struggled to take the lead for a lot of that game and Georgetown has really been struggling against conference teams this year. I think DePaul is going to start turning things around now that they have been playing better and I expect them to keep this game with Villanova close at least. I like DePaul to cover the spread here.
T.M. Prediction: 73-67 Villanova.
