No. 10 Villanova basketball is set to host the UConn Huskies Saturday afternoon in the Finneran Pavilion.
Villanova (13-3, 8-2 Big East Conference) will come into this game off of a 86-70 loss to Creighton, while UConn (10-5, 7-5 Big East Conference) is riding a 73-61 win over Providence.
This game comes as an opportunity for the ‘Cats to turn their momentum around after suffering a disappointing loss to Creighton last weekend. With ‘Nova in the hunt for a high-seed in the NCAA Tournament and still in the top spot for Big East Conference win percentage, the pressure is on Villanova to start winning again if it wants to enter March feeling comfortable.
