Trends
Oakland is 4-1 ATS in their last 5 Monday games and 4-14 ATS in their last 18 road games. The under is 4-1 in Oakland’s last 5 road games. Detroit is 17-4-1 ATS in their last 22 home games and 5-2 ATS in their last 7 Monday games. The over is 6-0 in Detroit’s last 6 games.
Pick
Oakland comes into this game after winning four of their last five games, while Detroit has won two games in a row. Detroit has one of the best scorers in the country, Antoine Davis, and he is second on the all time scoring list in the history of Division I. Both of these teams have been able to score at a good rate this season, but they have really struggled on defense. Detroit has gone over 152.5 in five straight games and I like the over in this game.
