Niagara vs Fairfield Key Stats

This season, Niagara have faced some challenging opposition and earned some excellent victories. However, they suffered losses against St. John's and Maryland.

And following a defeat to Iona, they have triumphed against Mount St. Mary's, Quinnipiac, and Rider in the MAAC. They have an overall record of 8-5 and a conference record of 3-1. They score 66 points on and surrender 64.4 on average.

The Stags have a 6-8 overall record and a 2-2 record in the MAAC this season. However, the Stags have faced several major opponents like Wake Forest and Xavier. Additionally, they have had a slightly more difficult schedule than the Purple Eagles.

They defeated Marist and St. Peter's in the MAAC but fell to Manhattan and Siena. They are ranked # 250 in terms of efficiency.

The Stags score 64.8 points on average and surrender 64.4. In terms of offensive and defensive effectiveness, they are ranked #202 and #294, respectively.


Niagara vs Fairfield Betting Prediction

The Stags shot just 28% from beyond the arc, which places them 345th in the USA and makes them one of the poorest three-point shooting teams in the country. The Purple Eagles shoot 36% from deep, which is significantly better than average from a distance.

The Stags' defensive efficiency puts them at No. 202, which is not very good. The Purple Eagles have a record of 7-5 against the spread this year, and I predict that they will cover the spread here, on the road, where they defeated Quinnipiac. For this one, take the Purple Eagles to cover the spread.

Pick: Niagara +3.5 (-110)
