Xavier opened Big East Conference play with a win over DePaul at the end of December.
The Musketeers, stuck on a five-game losing streak, host DePaul Saturday night (8 p.m., FS1) with a chance to collect the first win in almost a month.
Xavier 41, DePaul 37, 14:56 second half – Back-to-back 3-pointers for Paul Scruggs give Xavier a little breathing room.
Naji Marshall, Tyrique Jones and Zach Hankins are all playing with two fouls.
Marshall has 18 points to lead Xavier and Scruggs has 11.
