Southeast Missouri State vs. Lindenwood Prediction

I’m on Lindenwood here. I get the case to be made for Southeast Missouri State as Lindenwood hasn’t been in the best of form as of late. However, I think a lot of Lindenwood’s struggles can be attributed to their games being on the road as Lindenwood is 0-4 on the road in 2025, but 2-0 at home. The RedHawks have the better record, but Lindenwood’s 7-1 at home this season so getting a free bucket with the Lions sounds like a decent place to be in my opinion. Give me Lindenwood and the points in this game.
