What to Know

The La Salle Explorers have been on the wrong side of a one-way rivalry with the Saint Louis Billikens and are hoping to record their first win since Feb. 3 of 2021. La Salle and Saint Louis will face off in an Atlantic 10 battle at 2:30 p.m. ET Saturday at Chaifetz Arena. The Billikens should still be feeling good after a victory, while La Salle will be looking to get back in the win column.

La Salle received a tough blow on Monday as they fell 71-59 to the Saint Joseph's Hawks. Guard Khalil Brantley wasn't much of a difference maker for La Salle; Brantley finished with only seven points on 2-for-16 shooting in his 37 minutes on the court.

Meanwhile, Saint Louis didn't have too much trouble with the Loyola Chicago Ramblers on the road on Wednesday as they won 76-59. Saint Louis' guard Javonte Perkins looked sharp as he had 18 points.

La Salle is the clear underdog, so they're hoping it's the size of the fight that determines this one. The odds have been favorable for them against the spread on the road this season, even if it's been tough sledding overall. They are 4-2 ATS in away games but only 8-10 all in all.

La Salle is now 8-10 while Saint Louis sits at 13-6. The Billikens are 7-5 after wins this season, and the Explorers are 5-4 after losses.
