Lindenwood vs Southern Indiana Prediction

The Southern Indiana Screaming Eagles are 2-5-1 ATS in their last eight games, so excuse me if I’m not running to the window to back them. However, Southern Indiana has seen five of its six wins this season come at home. The Lindenwood Lions have yet to win a road game this season, and their offensive effort comes and goes. We’re laying less than a bucket with Southern Indiana at home, where it’s played its best ball. I’d need more points to give the Lindenwood Lions a serious look. I have to side with Southern Indiana and the small number at home on Thursday night.
