Rider vs Marist Prediction

The Rider Broncs are coming off back-to-back wins and have five road wins this season, but they’re still 2-8 SU and ATS in their last 10 games. It’s hard to find the confidence in Rider. The Marist Red Foxes are undefeated at home, and they’ve covered each of their last five games. A couple of covers were outright upsets over Iona and Saint Peter’s. With wins in nine of their last 10 games, the Marist Red Foxes are making their move to prove they’re likely the team to beat in the MAAC. I’m not convinced Rider is good enough defensively to hang around in a spot like this on the road. Give me Marist in a comfortable home victory.
