Siena vs Rider Prediction
In this Siena vs Rider Prediction, Siena is coming as -10.5 road favorites. Siena has been the far better team this season, as they are facing a terrible Siena squad that has won only once in their 12 games played so far, but Siena has been struggling lately, with three consecutive losses. I see no value on either side, but both teams have been struggling offensively this season, scoring just 131 points per game combined and as a result, they are 12-3 to the under in their last 15 games combined. Take the under 135 points in this one.
