Arizona State at UCLA: Odds, lines, predictions and picks
Prediction
UCLA 84, Arizona State 75
Money line (ML)
Arizona State has yet to win a game this season as an underdog, having lost all seven such contests. They lost at home already to the Bruins and lost their game this week at USC. This season got away from the Devils early. The Bruins are undefeated at home this season and are one game behind USC in the conference standings. If you’re into betting chalk plays, UCLA (-350) is it here, but we don’t generally recommend risking $350 to win $100…

Against the spread (ATS)
Arizona has struggled overall this season and, as expected, has been a bad bet most of the year against the spread. They have only covered the spread three times all season and only once on the road. UCLA has covered the spread in seven of their 10 home wins this season. Take UCLA -7.5 (-110).
Over/Under (O/U)
The two teams combined for 156 points in their first matchup this season in January. Four of UCLA’s last five games have gone Under but five of six before that went over. Three of the last four for Arizona State have gone Over. Hope Arizona State can hold up their end of the bargain; the lean here is OVER 145.5 POINTS (-110).
