What to Know

The Evansville Aces haven't won a contest against the Drake Bulldogs since Jan. 2 of 2019, but they'll be looking to end the drought on Wednesday. Evansville and Drake will face off in a Missouri Valley battle at 8 p.m. ET at Knapp Center.

The Aces came up short against the Southern Illinois Salukis on Saturday, falling 69-62.

Meanwhile, the Bulldogs came up short against the Bradley Braves on Saturday, falling 68-59.

Evansville is the clear underdog, so they're hoping it's the size of the fight that determines this one. They are currently three-for-three against the spread in their most recent games, however, a trend bettors might want to take into account.

With both teams hitting sour notes in their previous games, they will no doubt be looking to produce a better outcome in this one. We'll see which team satisfies their hunger and which team leaves with an empty stomach.
