What to Know

The Fairfield Stags' homestand continues as they prepare to take on the Niagara Purple Eagles at 1 p.m. ET Feb. 12 at Webster Bank Arena at Harbor Yard. Niagara should still be feeling good after a victory, while the Stags will be looking to regain their footing.

Fairfield came up short against the Quinnipiac Bobcats on Wednesday, falling 69-60.

Meanwhile, the Purple Eagles picked up an 80-71 win over the Iona Gaels on Sunday.

Barring any buzzer beaters, Fairfield is expected to win a tight contest Saturday. Their home court has been no bettor's paradise, though, as they've failed to beat the spread in six of their ten home games.

Fairfield is now 10-13 while Niagara sits at 11-11. Niagara is 5-5 after wins this year, and the Stags are 3-9 after losses.
