Mercyhurst vs Wagner Prediction

The Wagner Seahawks are probably the better team, but they lost to Mercyhurst last week at home as a five-point favorite. The Mercyhurst Lakers opened up as a slight favorite, and the public has moved this line. I’m rolling with the Lakers and the free bucket. The Mercyhurst Lakers are 2-6 ATS in their last 10 games, and Mercyhurst has seen five of its eight wins this season come at home. In the game last week, Wagner shot just 42 percent from the field and turned the ball over 15 times. Mercyhurst looked too comfortable offensively, shooting 49 percent and having four double-digit scorers. I should be more of the case at home. Give me Mercyhurst and the bucket.
