The UCLA Bruins will go on the road to play the Stanford Cardinal in a Pac-12 game on Tuesday.

The UCLA Bruins are 16-4 (8-3) this season and have lost two games in a row. UCLA is coming off of a loss against Arizona State by a score of 87-84 in triple overtime.

The Stanford Cardinal are 14-8 (7-5) this season and have won two of their last three games. Stanford defeated Washington by a score of 87-69 in their last game. Stanford shot 50.8% from the field and made 11 three pointers in the win. Jaiden Delaire led the Cardinal with 18 points and 8 rebounds in the game.

UCLA is 5-1 ATS in their last 6 Tuesday games and 1-4 ATS in their last 5 road games. The under is 7-1 in UCLA’s last 8 road games. Stanford is 15-6-1 ATS in their last 22 home games against a team with a winning road record. The under is 4-1 in Stanford’s last 5 games. The home team is 18-7-1 ATS in these two teams last 26 head to head meetings.

UCLA is coming off of back-to-back losses and will be on the road in this game. Stanford has alternated wins and losses in their last few games and is in the middle of the conference standings. UCLA is the more talented team in this matchup and should win the game. The key to this game will be UCLA’s defense, as they played poorly in their last two games. I like UCLA here because I do not think the Stanford offense is good enough to press them.
