Top Cappers News
Duke finds itself in another crucial matchup as it pushes toward securing the outright ACC regular season title. With only a few weeks remaining, every team is bringing its best effort against them, and Virginia is no exception. The Cavaliers, currently sitting in ninth place in the ACC, have gained momentum by winning four of their last five games, including an impressive road victory over rival Virginia Tech.
As usual, Virginia relies on a slow-paced style of play, but their offense lacks the efficiency needed to keep up with Duke. The Cavaliers are unlikely to generate many second-chance opportunities either, as Duke ranks among the best in the nation in defensive rebounding, sitting at 14th overall.
On the other end, the Blue Devils possess one of the top offenses in the country, ranking 35th in scoring, while also boasting an elite defense that allows the sixth-fewest points per game. The slow tempo won’t work in Virginia’s favor, as it will only play into Duke’s strengths.
From a betting perspective, Duke has been a solid road team, covering the spread in six of its last eight away games. Additionally, when the Blue Devils have been favored by double digits, they have covered 11 times in 18 opportunities. Expect Duke’s well-rounded play on both ends of the floor to control the pace and secure another convincing victory. Take Duke ATS
