Premium Pick

No. 25 Marquette has only played five road games, losing two of them. This is a tough stretch for them playing three straight Top 25 opponents after an 82-76 win at home against UConn. Now they head out on the road to face No. 12 Xavier. The Musketeers have great balance and firepower on an offense that averages 84.4 points shooting 51% from the field with five players scoring in double-figures. And the defense allows .441% shooting in conference play and is third in assist-to-turnover ratio (1.52) while leading the nation in assists per game (21.1). Xavier is on a 10-game winning streak and has won nine of its 10 home games. Xavier topped Marquette last year on this court, 80-71, and the wagering value is on the home team to win the game. Play Xavier on the moneyline.
