Lehigh vs Lafayette Prediction
Neither Lehigh nor Lafayette is lighting the world on fire, and you could do a lot better on a loaded Saturday CBB card. But since we’re here, I’m going to lay the bucket with Lafayette at home. Lehigh has just two road wins on the season, and Lafayette has seen seven of its 10 wins come at home. You can talk yourself into Lehigh after blasting Lafayette 86-47, but we’re talking about a team that’s six games below a .500 record. Lafayette is a profitable 14-11-2 ATS on the season. We’re not laying much. Give me Lafayette at home.
