Gonzaga vs. UCLA Prediction, Expert Picks & Odds Tonight
No. 14 Gonzaga (9-3) will travel to California to face No. 22 UCLA (10-2) at 4 p.m. (FOX) on Saturday inside the Intuit Dome.
The Bulldogs, who are 4.5-point favorites at our best sports betting sites, have won back-to-back games since their loss in the last marquee matchup, a 77-71 decision against UConn. UCLA is coming off a 76-74 loss to North Carolina last weekend.
Read on for our Gonzaga vs. UCLA prediction ahead of Saturday’s showdown from Inglewood, Calif.

Gonzaga vs. UCLA ATS prediction
Gonzaga to cover the spread: -4 ⭐⭐⭐
Best odds: -110 via Caesars | Implied probability: 52.38%
New users only. Must use promo code. Min. $10 deposit. Max. additional winnings $2.5K per token. Tokens expire in 14 days. Void where prohibited. Full terms.
The spread for this game has remained relatively unchanged, suggesting that the opening line at the best sportsbooks (4.5) was efficient. However, that could also be due to the disagreement between the public college basketball models.
KenPom projects a 75-73 victory for the Bulldogs, while Bart Torvik forecasts a 75-71 victory. EvanMiya is the highest on Gonzaga, evidenced by its 77.7-71.4 final score projection for this game.
I tend to side with the latter model due to Gonzaga’s elite offense. The Bulldogs rank No. 3 in adjusted offensive efficiency, a clear advantage over the Bruins’ 60th-ranked offense.

Gonzaga moneyline ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Best odds: -184 via FanDuel | Implied probability: 64.79%
New customers only. Deposit min. $5. Place first bet of $5+ and win $250 in Bonus Bets (within 72 hours).
If I like the Bulldogs to cover a 4-point spread, it only makes sense to take a discounted moneyline. EvanMiya’s projections give Gonzaga a 70.8% chance of victory, indicating a clear edge via FanDuel’s latest odds.
This game is at a neutral site (the Los Angeles Clippers’ arena) and didn’t require Gonzaga to travel very far, so there is no reason to give UCLA a bump in a “semi-home” game.
While the Bruins’ fourth-ranked defense can slow down most teams, their average opponent rank at EvanMiya (127) suggests this will be a step up in competition for them. I expect the Bulldogs to flex their muscles as one of the best offensive teams in the sport.
