Rider is on the road playing Fairfield at the Leo D. Mahoney Arena stadium on Sunday, 1/29/2023 @ 2:00pm EST. Fairfield -3 was the opening favorite and current line is Fairfield -2.5.

A MAAC game between the Rider Broncos (10-9, 7-10 ATS, 5-12 O/U) and the Fairfield Stags (10-10, 12-7 ATS, 8-11 O/U) takes place on Sunday afternoon. In Friday's matchup against Marist, the Broncos won. Previously, the Stags defeated Mount St. Mary's on the road. The two meetings between Fairfield and Rider last season were both won by Fairfield.

The rider won his fourth consecutive race

In their quest for a fifth straight victory, the Rider Broncs are targeting a victory. The team has played outstanding defense during its winning streak. In a 68-52 road victory over Marist on Friday night, Rider won by 2.5 points after narrowly defeating Manhattan 67-65 last weekend. A talented Siena team defeated Rider on January 8th in Rider's only loss since then. After covering the spread in two of their last three road games, the Broncs are 7-3 in MAAC play.
