Purdue vs. Michigan CBB Prediction:
Both teams enter this game on four-game winning streaks. Purdue has been dominant, winning 11 of their last 12 games since a loss to Auburn. Michigan has also been impressive, with recent victories over Oregon and Indiana.
Given both teams’ current form and Michigan’s home advantage, this game is anticipated to be closely contested. While Michigan is slightly favored, Purdue’s recent dominance cannot be overlooked. Fans can expect a high-intensity game with significant implications for the Big Ten standings.
I like the over tonight in Ann Arbor. In the last 10 meetings between these two teams, the over is 7-3. That includes a four-game over streak in this series. The over is also 7-3 in the Boilermakers’ last 10 games and has cashed in seven out of the Wolverines’ last 10 games as well.
