Marist (4-1) is on a four-game winning streak after a close 54-49 victory over New Hampshire, while Lehigh (1-5) is looking to bounce back after a tough 71-65 loss to Saint Francis (PA) earlier this week​.

Marist relies on balanced scoring, led by Josh Pascarelli , who averages 19.4 points and 4.2 rebounds per game. The Red Foxes excel defensively, allowing just 49 points in their previous game, ranking among the stronger defensive units in the MAAC. However, their offense has been inconsistent, averaging 73 points per game, and will need to improve to contend with Lehigh’s capable scorers​.

Lehigh is led by Tyler Whitney-Sidney, who averages 12.7 points and 4.2 rebounds per game. The Mountain Hawks are strong on the boards, grabbing 30 rebounds per contest, and have a slight edge in assists per game compared to Marist. Lehigh’s defense has allowed 88 points in their last matchup, and they will need to contain Marist’s scoring threats to capitalize on their home-court advantage.

Marist vs Lehigh Pick Analysis

 The game could come down to Marist’s defensive pressure versus Lehigh’s ability to dominate the boards. If Lehigh can get Whitney-Sidney going early and control the glass, they may pull off a close victory. However, Marist’s recent form and Lehigh's struggling defense lead us to a confident play on Marist. Prediction: Marist wins 76-63.
