Betting on the Troy Trojans
The Trojans had a successful start to the campaign in which they went on to win six of their first seven games. However, they are going through a difficult three-game away stretch, in which they have lost the first two games of the season,against Arkansas and against SIU. So now here they are on a mission to avoid a third straight loss and continue to drop in a Sun Belt Conference in which they are 4th, just 2.0 games out of first place.
Troy’s most recent win came at home to the SIU Edwardsville Cougars, where a good late comeback was not enough to avoid a 72-78 loss, in which they had four players recording at least 10 points, the most productive being Aamer Muhammad with 13 goals and 4 assists.
Betting on the San Diego State Aztecs
In contrast to their opponent, the Aztecs have straightened out their campaign by winning their last two games, placing them in 6th place in the Mountain West Conference, but 2.0 games out of first place. The Aztecs will surely feel confident of a good result here, as they are still undefeated at home so far this campaign after four home games.
Drarrion Trammell has been the Aztecs’ offensive leader this campaign, with 13.1 points scored per game. However, he has been absent in recent games and is doubtful for this game, so now he will need the support of other players.
And Adam Seiko did just that in the team’s most recent victory, as he scored a total of 20 points by hitting 7 of his 11 field attempts, coming off the bench and playing just 18:00 minutes, while Matt Bradley contributed 9 points and 8 assists.
JefeBet Prediction
The Trojans have been one of the most offensively productive teams of the season by averaging 81.7 points scored per game, so they will surely present an interesting challenge to an Aztecs that have been unstoppable at home, but on defense tend to give up some liberties. However, to do so, they will need to improve an away performance that has seen them drop their average to 71.3 points scored.
In addition, the Trojans have also not been among the best in the tournament defensively, so the Aztecs can probably have a good night on offense as well considering they have given up an average of 82.3 points scored as a home underdog so far this season.
Although the Trojans’ performance away from home is down, they still have a decent offensive average at home. Therefore, we expect that to combine with the efficiency the Aztecs have had at home and leave us with a score with a lot of points.
Prediction: Over.
