Providence Friars
After ending January on a three game losing skid, Providence has regained some momentum with two consecutive February wins. Two wins isn’t a feat to ride home about, but the teams they beat are. They beat ranked Butler as a 6.5 point away underdog. Then, they beat ranked Creighton by 17 when they were only 2 point favorites. Impressive run for the Friars.

The Friars are led by the guard tandem of Alpha Diallo and David Duke. Diallo averages a team high 12.9 points per game and a team high 7.8 rebounds her game. He also leads all Friars in steals and blocks per game. Duke is second on the team with 12.6 points per game and leads the team in assists per game with 3.5. He shoots a team high 45.9% from three.
Providence averages 70.7 points per game while shooting just over 40% from the field. Not great, but enough. Their free throw percentage has drastically increased in their last five games. That could play a big part in a game that could be closely contested throughout the majority of play.
Xavier Musketeers
Xavier, like Providence, ended January on a poor run. They lost four of their last five January games but like Providence, they started February hot with two consecutive wins. The first against Seton Hall, where they won by double digits as a live dog. The second came against DePaul, when they were 2 point underdogs. Both teams are gaining momentum at the perfect time.
Xavier gets their scoring mainly from forward Naji Marshall, guard Paul Scruggs, and forward Tyrique Jones. Marshall averages a team high 16.5 points per game while Scruggs and Jones average 13.4 and 13.5 points per game, respectively. Jones leads the team in rebounds and blocks per game. All three of them will need to continue their high output to extend their win streak to three.
Xavier is nearly identical to Providence if you were to look at solely the numbers and statistics. They average 1 more point per game than Providence, have a slightly better field goal percentage, a slightly worse three point percentage, and a below average free throw percentage. Xavier, however, is shooting 55.8% from the charity stripe in their last five games. Something to keep an eye on.

Providence has looked so damn good in their past two games. I have a hard time picking against them here and will gladly take 4 points in the process. Maybe sprinkle the money line.
