Game outlook

On Wednesday night, the VCU Rams (17-5, 7-2 A10) will face off against the La Salle Explorers (12-10, 4-5 A10) in an Atlantic 10 Conference matchup. In their previous meeting, VCU secured a 71-65 victory over La Salle. The Rams have dominated the head-to-head series, winning the last nine meetings and covering the spread in six of those games. Currently, VCU is favored to win by 18.5 points in the upcoming matchup.

Betting Odds

Based on the moneyline, the implied probability that Va. Commonwealth will win straight-up is 97%.

La Salle Explorers

La Salle enters Tuesday's game with momentum following a recent victory over George Washington, with Corey McKeithan and Deuce Jones leading the team in points. McKeithan is the team's top scorer for the season, shooting well from the three-point range. The Explorers are ranked 194th overall in the KenPom ratings. Offensively, they average 75 points per game but struggle with their field goal percentage. Defensively, they allow an average of 74.5 points per game and struggle with opponents shooting percentage. Overall, La Salle is 12-10 this season and ranked 295 in power rankings, with strengths and weaknesses in both offensive and defensive statistics.

The VCU Rams are currently on a hot streak, winning seven of their last eight games and sitting in second place in the Atlantic 10 Conference. Their most recent dominant victory was a 90-49 win over Richmond. Joe Bamisile leads the team in scoring, Jack Clark is the top rebounder, and Max Shulga has been a key contributor in scoring, assists, and steals. The Rams rank 36th overall in the KenPom ratings, with a strong defense ranking 22nd nationally. Their offense is also performing well, ranking 66th. With a perfect 11-0 home record, they are a formidable opponent at the Siegel Center. In terms of offense, the Rams average 77.24 points per game and shoot 43.84% from the field, while on defense, they allow 63.19 points per game and hold opponents to 39.65% shooting from the field.

VCU Favored to Cover Spread Against Fordham in Matchup

The point spread in this matchup between VCU and Fordham is considerable. VCU has a strong track record of covering the spread in their victories, but has struggled to do so in their losses. Currently, VCU is on a winning streak, having won five of their last six games and covering the spread in each of their five most recent wins. Conversely, Fordham has not been able to cover the spread in their last four road games. Given these statistics, I recommend betting on VCU to cover the spread in this game.
