Providence vs. Marquette Prediction, Odds, Line, Spread, and Picks - January 18 | 2022-23 NCAA Basketball Season

Two top-25 teams are set to trade blows tonight, as the Providence Friars and Marquette Golden Eagles face off in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

Providence had their nine-game winning streak snapped at Creighton on Saturday. It was their first conference loss of the season and brought their season record to 14-4. That game also snapped a four-game win streak on the road.

Marquette also saw a winning streak come to an end on Sunday, losing at Xavier to snap a five-game streak. They have dropped to 14-5 this season and are 6-2 in Big East play. Their only other conference loss was against Providence.

This is the second meeting between these conference rivals who are separated by only half a game in the standings. We'll see if Providence sweeps the Golden Eagles, or if Marquette will get revenge on the Friars.

Providence vs. Marquette Betting Prediction

Despite coming off losses, both teams are playing incredibly well, and if the first game is any indication, are evenly matched. Marquette is at home and hopefully will commit severely fewer fouls, which will probably lead to better results for them. Still, this game should come down to the wire just like the last one. Providence covering the spread seems like the best bet here.

Prediction: Providence +7.5 (-110)
