Betting Trends for vs

Kentucky has the more talented squad, but will struggle to cover the number with leading scorer PJ Washington likely sitting out due to a left foot injury. The Wildcats have failed to cover 5 of the last 7, while Wofford has covered the number in each of the last 8. Look for Keldon Johnson, Tyler Herro and Ashton Hagans to carry the Wildcats to a straight up win in Washington’s absence. Final Score Prediction, Kentucky Wildcats win and cover ATS 73-65.
