Providence vs Butler Prediction


Providence can be a sneaky team when the shots are falling, and it has a decent showing with a cover against Florida, but there’s not much to write home about. Butler has been more consistent with a balanced attack and along with the wins the Bulldogs are 8-2 ATS in their last 10 games. Butler has covered 10 of its last 13 games as a favorite. Butler is so efficient offensively and with the way it continues to cover numbers, it’s just a team I’m looking to fade. I’ll lay the reasonable number with the Bulldogs.
