Purdue vs High Point Preview & Picks
Purdue are tipped to cover the spread as they reach round two of March Madness.
The Boilermakers are a major step up from the teams that High Point have been facing, and we expect them to go on a run that sees them pull away.
- Purdue are 11-4-0 ATS as a single digit favorite
- High Point are playing as a betting underdog for the first time this season
- The Over has cashed in 4 of Purdue’s last 5 games
Head To Head
- Purdue lead the all-time series 1-0
- Purdue won 67-65 when the two teams last met in November 2011
Purdue Form
Purdue enter March Madness having struggled for form in recent weeks, losing six of their last nine games.
The Boilermakers’ saw a four-game win streak end with a 75-73 defeat to Michigan on February 11, and that proved to be the start of a four-game skid.
They ended that losing skid with a 76-66 win over UCLA, and then beat Rutgers 100-71 before falling to Illinois in their regular season finale, 88-80.
Purdue rebounded in their opening game of the Big Ten tournament, beating Southern California 76-71, but their joy was short-lived.
The Boilermakers were dumped out of the conference tournament in the quarter-finals, as they lost 86-68 to Michigan,
High Point Form
High Point are riding a red-hot run of form into the national tournament, having now won each of their last 14 games.
The Panthers have not been beaten since the 82-80 defeat when they visited Longwood back on January 16.
They issued an immediate response to that loss, and then closed out the regular season on an 11-game win streak.
High Point kept that run going in the Big South tournament, as they downed Gardner-Webb 85-64 and Radford 76-73.
The Panthers then completed the job in the final, as they took down Winthrop, 81-69, to claim the conference crown.
Verdict
High Point have been on a tear, but that tear has been at a lesser level.
Despite their poor form Purdue are clearly the better team, so we are confident that they will avoid an upset here.
