Pick
I’m leaning towards Lafayette here. I don’t love laying points with a team with a poor record like the Leopards, but they’ve come a long way in the last couple of weeks, winning 4 of 5 and the Greyhounds just haven’t been able to really string anything of note together the entire season. Give me the Leopards laying the points at home here.
