Rider is coming into this game with a 10-13 record overall and they are 5-4 in their home games this season where they will be in this game. This will be the 14th conference matchup on their schedule this year and they are currently 6-7 in their conference games this season.

Siena is coming into this game after winning 5 of their last 6 games and they will have a lot of confidence coming into this game. They are on a 2 game winning streak and coming off of a massive win against Iona, the best team in the MAAC, and they will be looking to carry over that energy into this game. Siena is 3rd in the conference with an 8-4 conference record but they have struggled on the road this season with a 5-5 record in those games. They are going up against a Rider team that has been picking up some steam recently with 5 wins in their last 6 games and are coming into this one on a 4 game winning streak. Rider has struggled in both conference games and at home this season though but they have won all 4 of their last 4 games by close to double digits. Siena is the better team here but Rider is hot right now and this should be a close game between two teams that are playing very well. Rider will likely edge out this win at home by a few points and continue on their winning streak.
