Davidson vs. Fordham picks and predictions
Prediction
Davidson 66, Fordham 60
Moneyline
PASS.
Davidson (-178) has a good shot to win its 3rd game of the season against Fordham, but at this price, it doesn’t have much value in backing.
Against the spread
BET DAVIDSON -4.5 (-102).
The Wildcats have struggled as of late, but they have dominated Fordham this season and should continue to. They beat the Rams by 15 at home and by 10 on the road, covering as 6.5-point favorites and 3-point underdogs, respectively.
Davidson also has far more scoring with 4 players averaging over 12 points per game, while Fordham doesn’t have a single player topping 11.0 per game. Fordham has failed to cover in 7 of its last 12 and hasn’t rewarded betters often.
TAKE DAVIDSON -4.5 (-102).

Over/Under
LEAN UNDER 134.5 (-105).
If there’s something both teams have done lately, it is to go Under the projected total. The Rams have gone Under in 4 of their last 6 games, while the Wildcats have also cashed the Under in 4 of their last 6.
Neither team has a scorer that averages north of 13 points per game, so there isn’t much high-level scoring going on. Neither team has topped 71 points in its last 4 games either.
Expect a low-scoring, hard-nosed battle and BET UNDER 134.5 (-105).
