What to Know

Youngstown State is 8-2 against the Panthers since January of 2019, and they'll have a chance to extend that success on Friday. Both teams will face off in a Horizon League battle at 8:00 p.m. ET at UW-Milwaukee Panther Arena. Despite being away, Youngstown State is looking at a 2.5-point advantage in the spread.

The point spread may have favored Youngstown State last Saturday, but the final result did not. They fell 81-73 to the Vikings.

Meanwhile, the Panthers slipped by the Norse 73-72 on Saturday. The victory made it back-to-back wins for Milwaukee.

The Penguins' defeat dropped their record down to 19-9. As for the Panthers, they now have a winning record of 14-13.

This contest is one where the number of possessions is likely to be a big factor: Youngstown State have been smashing the glass this season, having averaged 40.2 rebounds per game. However, it's not like Milwaukee struggles in that department as they've been averaging 38.7 rebounds per game. Given these competing strengths, it'll be interesting to see how their clash plays out.

Youngstown State was able to grind out a solid win over the Panthers in their previous matchup on February 8th, winning 97-85. The rematch might be a little tougher for Youngstown State since the squad won't have the home-court advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
