Both teams are pretty even in conference play and rely on their defense to win games. Both Manhattan and Fairfield have held conference opponents under 40% shooting. Manhattan has been particularly good at 2 point defense ranking 83rd nationally and have held opponents to 38.6% over their last 3. Fairfield has never had much of a home court advantage considering they play at Webster Bank Arena in Bridgeport, CT which is off campus and I'll continue to fade them in this building. It lacks a college atmosphere and the Stags show it often times just going through the motions. The Jaspers are 18-7-1 ATS in their last 26 road games vs. a team with a winning home record and are 9-3 ats in their last 12 conference games.
