1/9/19 Marquette vs. Creighton (Preview & Free Pick)

in #sports6 years ago

(21) Marquette 12-3 @ Creighton 10-5

On January 9th 2019, The Marquette Golden Eagles will make the trip to Omaha Nebraska to take on the Creighton Bluejays.

Marquette may be ranked in the top 25, however they still do not have a single victory on the road, as they look to change that on Monday evening in Omaha. Despite that poor trend, Marqutte is playing some very good basketball, winning eight of their past nine games, to improve to a record of 12-3 overall, including 1-1 in Big East action, which includes a big win over Xavier on Sunday.

The Creighton Bluejays come into tonight’s contest fresh off a 84-69 loss to Butler on Sunday. However, as we approach the middle part of January, Creighton has exceeded expectations. Currently the Bluejays rank 3rd nationally in 3-point percentage, 4th nationally in field goal percentage, as well as 4th nationally in 3-pointers made per game. With that said- look for Creighton’s Achilles heel to be their defense in this match-up. Currently CU is allowing their opponents to hit nearly 54% of their two-pointers, which ranks them #275 in the nation.

Hot Trends:
Marquette has won 5 straight games against Creighton
Marquette is 4-1 Against The Spread vs. a team with a record above .600
Creighton is 1-4 Against The Spread vs. a team with a record above .600

Premium Selection: Marquette +3.5 (2.2 to win 2.00 units)
