Arizona at Baylor Picks and Predictions
Prediction
The predicted score is Arizona 75, Baylor 61.
Analysts suggest a “PASS” on betting on Arizona to win outright, citing minimal value given their current odds. However, a bet on Arizona to cover the -8.5 spread (-110) is recommended.
Baylor has covered the spread in only 3 of their last 10 games, failing to cover in their last four, including their last two home games and as underdogs. Arizona recently secured a road win against No. 2 Houston 73-66 on Saturday and has covered in 5 of their last 9 games.
A bet on the Under (154.5, -105) is also advised. Arizona has hit the Under in 8 of their last 10 games, and Baylor has hit the Under in 6 of their last 8. Arizona has limited opponents to 68 or fewer points in 5 of their last 9 games, while Baylor has scored 73 or fewer points in 2 of their last 3 and 3 of their last 5.
