Central Arkansas vs Niagara Key Stats
The Bears have done well, averaging 85.7 points per game so far this season. They are solid at over 45 FG completion rates and an FT percentage of 75.6. The team is not static with multiple players contributing to their offense, with each player having over 10 points per game.
Eddy Kayouloud has done well on offense with an FG conversion rate of over 50. He has helped the team on defense too. The team averages 7.7 steals per game and has 2.7 blocks per game. Though they have won their last two games by big margins, they need to strengthen their defense going forward.
The Purple Eagles have failed to make the most of their chances and have averaged only 49.5 points per game this season, which is not ideal for them. Only Braxton Bayless could score over 10 points per game this season. Their offense has been one of the reasons for their poor season so far and needs a lot of attention.
Like the offense, the defense has failed to do well with less than five steals and only two blocks per game so far this season.
Central Arkansas vs Niagara Betting Prediction
Both teams are playing away and this is not ideal for both, but the Bears will fancy their chances of exploiting the Eagles' poor defense.
The Purple Eagles have not played well and are coming in with low morale, making things difficult for them against the spirited Bears side.
Prediction: Take Bears, ML +142
