Rider hasn’t found much success so far this year. The Broncs haven’t been able to win consecutive games yet, and they’ve got three losing streaks of three games or more. In the last three, Rider has lost to Marist once and Quinnipiac twice. 

In the 93-68 loss to Quinnipiac on Sunday, Rider’s Christian Ings put up 12 points with three rebounds in 21 minutes. Both Rodney Henderson and Tyrel Bladen notched 11 points apiece, combining for five assists and 15 rebounds as well. 

Over on the Saint Peter’s side, they’ve had an up-and-down season themselves and haven’t been able to string together more than two consecutive wins yet. The Peacocks are 2-2 in their last four, splitting a pair of games with both Fairfield and Marist. 

In the 51-50 loss to Marist on Saturday, Saint Peter’s KC Ndefo put up 15 points with five rebounds and one assist. Doug Edert had 13 points with five rebounds, and Daryl Banks had 12 points, seven boards and three assists in 33 minutes of work. 

The Peacocks are 2-5 ATS in their last seven home games and 3-10-1 ATS in their last 14 overall. Saint Peter’s is 1-4 ATS in their last five Friday games and the under is 10-1 in their last 11 overall. 

Meanwhile, the Broncs are 5-2-1 ATS in their last eight Friday games and 1-4 ATS in their last five road games. Rider is 4-10 ATS in their last 14 overall and the over is 5-1 in the last six overall. 

PICK: I’m going to stick with Saint Peter’s here. Rider has gone just 1-6 in their last seven games, hitting 70 points just twice during that stretch. The Peacocks haven’t exactly been overpowering on offense themselves lately, but the good news is that they’ve been solid on defense. I like this one as a lower-scoring game and a Peacocks cover.
