What You Should Understand
Since February 2019, Ohio has defeated Miami (Ohio) 8-2, and they will have an opportunity to continue that winning streak on Friday. At 7:00 p.m. ET, both teams will square off in a Mid-American match at John D. Millett Hall. Ohio will try to continue their winning run of five games.

Ohio demonstrated on Tuesday that it is slightly easier to win when you make eight more three-pointers than your opponent. They defeated the Bulls 78-66 to win the game.

Shereef Mitchell and AJ Clayton were two of Ohio’s primary facilitators; the former finished with 23 points, 1 assist, and 7 for 13 shooting from outside the arc, while the latter scored 23 points, 5 rebounds, and 3 steals. Clayton scored 20 or more points for the first time this season. The dreadful 0-5 three-point shooting of Jaylin Hunter was less beneficial for Ohio.

On Tuesday, Miami (Ohio) regrettably saw the end of their winning run of three games. The Rockets delivered them a crushing defeat, losing 97-63. Miami (Ohio) has struggled against Toledo lately, losing the last 10 meetings between the two teams.

The Bobcats have won nine of their last 11 games, which has greatly improved their 18-12 record this season. They have been playing well lately. With their loss, the RedHawks’ record was reduced to 15–15.

Unless there are buzzer beaters, Ohio is predicted to win a close game. They will be the favorites in this game for the sixth straight (they are 3-1 against the spread during this run).

When the teams met each other last in February, Ohio defeated Miami (Ohio) 78-69. Ohio may find the rematch more difficult because they will not have the home-court edge. We’ll watch to see if the new location has an impact.
