Villanova has been the better team this season and has been very strong at home, while Georgetown has been below average on the road. But Villanova is just 2-2 in its last 4 games and 1-3 against the spread, while Georgetown has been struggling, with five consecutive losses and 2-5 against the spread in their last 7 games. Villanova has been better both on the offensive and the defensive and and given how bad Georgetown has been lately, I expect them to bounce back at home and cover the spread.
