Robert Morris vs Green Bay Betting Prediction

Green Bay comes into this matchup after winning three of their last four games and they will be at home for this game. The Phoenix are the much better defensive team in this matchup, but they have had their struggles scoring this year. Robert Morris is 0-3 to start conference play and they have allowed 78 and 90 points in their last two games. I think Green Bay is the better team here and they should be able to score consistently against a bad Robert Morris defense. Take the Phoenix here.
