St. John's vs DePaul Betting Prediction
With the help of two seasoned transfers, the Blue Demons have been a pretty reliable squad thus far this season, winning five of their first eight games. The Blue Demons typically play close games because they have covered this spread in two of their three losses as well.
Due to the fact that they are more suited to this style of game than the average club, their seasoned backcourt offers them an appealing betting option on the road. Tonight, bet on the DePaul Blue Demons to cover the spread.
