Central Connecticut vs Stonehill Prediction
Stonehill has shown flashes this season and will be up for this game at home, where it’s 8-2 SU. The problem is Central Connecticut is the team to beat in the Northeast and has nine wins on the road. Central Connecticut is also 14-5 ATS on the season. It’s just hard to step in front of Central Connecticut, a team that wins and covers numbers at an elite clip. Also, Central Connecticut is top-20 in scoring defense and top-80 in field goal percentage defense. A Stonehill team that’s had issues scoring all year won’t find much joy in this matchup. I’ll lay the points with Central Connecticut.
