Villanova Wildcats vs Michigan State Spartans 11/18/2022 Picks Predictions Previews

The Villanova Wildcats will go against the Michigan State Spartans in NCAAB action in Jack Breslin Student Events Center, MI, on Friday, November 18, 2022, at 8:00 PM ET.

As the Wildcats basketball team begins its first season in more than 20 years without retiring head coach Jay Wright, this year will undoubtedly be special.

Kyle Neptune, a former Wright assistant, took over and aims to make the transfer as easy as possible while bringing his ideals to the program.

Villanova is off to a 2-1 start so far with its lone setback coming to Temple, a cross-town foe. Despite a sluggish start on Monday night, Villanova defeated Delaware State 60–50 at home.

The Cats were well-known for their effective offense and ability to manage the tempo of the game under Wright. The club is generating 68.3 points per game during the first three matches of the season, and it has a point differential of more than six points each game.

They are making only nine turnovers a game, which is a hallmark of Wright’s teams while shooting 47% from the field and 37% from 3-point range. Dixon was Villanova’s top scorer, scoring more than 18 points per game.

The Villanova Wildcats are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 matches.
The total went UNDER in 8 of Villanova’s last 11 matches.
The Villanova Wildcats are 11-2 SU in their last 13 matches.

Villanova Wildcats vs Michigan State Spartans Predictions 11/18/2022

Tom Izzo, the head coach of Michigan State, did not take any chances while planning the Spartans’ early schedule.

The Spartans played Gonzaga, Kentucky, and now Villanova after beginning the season with a winnable game against Northern Arizona.

Izzo’s squad is 2-1 after an 86-77 double-overtime victory over the Wildcats in Indianapolis as part of the Champions Classic, despite that difficult start.

The second overtime session was when Mady Sissoko, a junior forward, really came alive, collecting seven of his game-high 16 points.

Through 3 matches, the Spartans have a +7.4 point difference while averaging 74 points per game. They are only shooting 42% from the field and 31% from beyond the arc, but they are limiting the opponent to only shooting 37% from the field and 26% from beyond the arc.

An average of 14 times each game, the Spartans turn the ball over. Hauser, who averages 14 points per game, is the team’s top scorer.

The Michigan State Spartans are 7-2 ATS in their last 9 matches.
The total went OVER in 8 of Michigan State’s last 11 matches.
The Michigan State Spartans are 6-3 SU in their last 9 matches.

Villanova Wildcats vs Michigan State Spartans. The NCAAB pick for this game is the Villanova Wildcats. Villanova is skilled and fiercely committed to defending basketball.

Despite not being abundant with size, they also rebound quite effectively, largely because their guards mix it up inside as well.

With less than 10 turnovers per game, the Wildcats are less likely to put themselves in danger than the Spartans when they shoot the ball significantly better than they do.

Instead of playing at the fast-paced track meet that MSU prefers, they will try to control the tempo and make this a possession-to-possession affair.

Villanova’s ability to keep the Spartans off the glass will determine the outcome of the match. The Villanova Wildcats will win to a predicted score of 69-65.
