Fordham vs Duquesne College Basketball Picks, Odds, Predictions 1/27/21

The Duquesne Dukes and Fordham Rams meet Wednesday in college basketball action at the Rose Hill Gymnasium.

The Duquesne Dukes need a win after losing five of their last seven games. The Duquesne Dukes are averaging 63.4 points on 40.6 percent shooting and allowing 65.6 points on 41.4 percent shooting. Marcus Weathers is averaging 13.2 points and 6.3 rebounds while Tavian Dunn-Martin is averaging 11.3 points and 2.8 rebounds. Sincere Carry is dishing 4.2 assists and Michael Hughes is grabbing 7.3 rebounds. The Duquesne Dukes are shooting 29 percent from beyond the arc and 63.8 percent from the free throw line. The Duquesne Dukes are allowing 27.1 percent shooting from deep and are grabbing 33.3 rebounds per game.

The Fordham Rams need a win to snap a five-game losing streak. The Fordham Rams are averaging 49.9 points on 34.6 percent shooting and allowing 65 points on 43.5 percent shooting. Josh Colon is averaging 14 points and one rebound while Chris Austin is averaging 11.3 points and 0.8 assists. Joel Soriano is the third double-digit scorer and Josh Navarro is grabbing two rebounds. The Fordham Rams are shooting 25.6 percent from beyond the arc and 63.7 percent from the free throw line. The Fordham Rams are allowing 33.5 percent shooting from deep and are grabbing 25.9 rebounds per game.

The Dukes are 5-2 ATS in their last 7 Wednesday games and 2-5 ATS in their last 7 games overall. The Rams are 21-44 ATS in their last 65 home games. The over is 5-2 in Dukes last 7 road games. The under is 5-1 in Rams last 6 overall. The underdog is 12-3-1 ATS in the last 16 meetings.

Both of these teams can’t figure things out just yet, and I’m not looking to back an offensively challenged Duquesne team that’s shooting 39.4 percent from the field in its last five games. The Fordham Rams are riding a five-game losing streak, but they’re still getting after it defensively and compete despite limited results. The Duquesne Dukes also win by an average of 3.2 points in the favorite role. Much better betting options out there, but I’d grab the points if forced to pick.
