Betting Prediction:
The Kentucky Wildcats are playing very well at the moment and they have won 5 of their last 6 games. The team is averaging 80.9 points per game on 49.1% shooting while allowing 68.7 points on 42.5% shooting from the field. Keldon Johnson is the team leader with 15.5 points and 1.7 assists while Reid Travis is averaging 13.2 points and 6.5 rebounds.
The Georgia Bulldogs haven’t been as convincing as they would like to be but they still won 6 of their last 9 games. The team is averaging 77.3 points per game on 46.5% shooting while allowing 73.2 points per game on 39.4% shooting. Rayshaun Hammonds is averaging 13.9 points and 6.7 rebounds while Nicolas Claxton is averaging 12.6 points and 2.2 assists.
The Kentucky Wildcats are clearly the better team but they have not been playing very well against the spread this year. They are just 5-9 ATS on the season while Georgia has been one of the most consistent sides at home. This feels like a game where Georgia can finally snap the losing streak to Kentucky while we also can rely on the 6-point cushion.
