UConn at DePaul picks and predictions
Prediction
UConn 81, DePaul 57
Moneyline
PASS.
UConn (-10000) has been dominant in recent matchups vs. DePaul and is the much better team, but the Huskies are not worth the risk of betting on as such heavy favorites. Bet on the spread and/or O/U instead.
Against the spread
LEAN UCONN -23.5 (-120).
The Huskies have covered the spread in 2 of their last 3 games and are 6-4 ATS in their last 10. UConn has also covered the spread in 3 consecutive meetings with DePaul and is 8-2 ATS in the last 10 meetings. UConn is also the better ATS team this season at 14-10, while DePaul is 7-15-1.
This is only a lean because betting on a spread this wide always come with a risk.
