Drexel beat Niagara badly a year ago 84-39 and as we have seen in many cases in betting that team usually comes back the next time with some revenge. In that game they were out rebounded -23, out shot 54% to 29% and had a -3 turnover margin. Now they are at home and they do play a Drexel team that is very very good on defense, but Niagara has Antoine Mason back after injury they did not have him a year ago when they shot 29% and he was their leading scorer with over 16 points per game.
Now Niagara is a relatively large home dog on revenge in this spot and they are playing a Drexel team that really struggles to score points particularly on the road. Thus far they are 320th in scoring and 320th in FG%. Now Niagara is not juggernaut at defense, but their offense has started to click and they are scoring into the 70's in 3 of their last 4 games including an impressive game at home vs. Fairfield. They're also forcing 17 turnovers per game at home which has been reason for their poor defensive FG% defense as they take some chances. I believe their motivation will be high tonight facing Drexel and they should get it done. Drexel themselves are just 5-14-1 ATS in their last 20 road games vs. a team with a losing record at home while Niagara ae 9-4-1 ATS in their last 14 home games alone. Don't be surprised if Niagara wins this game out right which would be a +260 pay day.
