4* Free UCLA vs. Stanford CBB Betting Prediction: Stanford +7.5
The UCLA Bruins have hit a bump, dropping two straight games to Arizona and Arizona State, and have lost confidence as a result. Stanford is a competitive team and stands at 4-2 in their last 6 games overall.
They play tough on their home court where they registered a win against a ranked USC team, plus they just beat Washington by an 87-69 score in their latest action.
Furthermore, the Cardinal have the defensive ability to contain UCLA’s scoring. They have allowed 66 or fewer points in 4 out of their last 5 games and UCLA only shot 37% against Stanford in the first meeting last month.
This is definitely a game I see getting closer down the stretch which will play in the free points favor.
Take Stanford to hang in this game enough to cover at home on Tuesday night.
