Stanford at Arizona State picks and predictions
Prediction
Arizona State 83, Stanford 75
Moneyline
The Sun Devils have been great so far at home this season at 8-1. They already beat Stanford 76-73 as 5.5-point underdogs on the road on Dec. 29.
The Cardinal are 2-3 on the road. Both their wins are in conference play. They are 1-3 as road underdogs.
With even odds for both teams, I'm going to lean with the home team, but because you have +100 odds for the Sun Devils against the spread with only a 1.5-point spread, you get a little extra value.
There isn't anything wrong with a moneyline bet on Arizona State, but the better play is an ATS wager.
PASS.
Against the spread
The Sun Devils are 3-4 ATS as home favorites, but it will be a hard task to win and not cover the spread in this game at -1.5. They have three 2-point wins but every single one of their 11 wins is by at least 2.
Stanford is 1-2-1 ATS as road dogs.
BET ARIZONA STATE -1.5 (+100).
