Michigan basketball takes on Wisconsin tonight in a key Big Ten matchup, here’s how to watch and stream, as well as a breakdown of the odds.

Michigan basketball will put its winning streak on the line tonight against the Wisconsin Badgers in a critical Big Ten battle.

Both the Badgers and Wolverines are going to be in the NCAA tournament and right now, each is playing as well as any team in the conference. Michigan basketball has won seven of eight games, while the Badgers have won four of five.

Both teams have a chance to reach the top four in the Big Ten and the double-bye that comes along with it. Both teams shoot the ball well, take care of the basketball and play good, solid defense.

It’s going to be an old-school, Big-Ten basketball game. At least that’s what Wisconsin wants to turn it into and usually, they are pretty good at it, with the way they slow down the tempo.

If Michigan can get the game in the 70s or 80s, it will have a huge edge. For the Badgers, the more low-scoring, the slower the pace, the better. Both teams are surging. Michigan has done it with the return of Isaiah Livers and Wisconsin has been aided by Micah Potter, who scored 18 points and grabbed nine rebounds in the last win. He’s dynamic even though he comes off the bench.

Livers has been playing lights out and his return has also aided Franz Wagner, who scored a career-high 22 points in the win at Purdue, including three 3-pointers. When he and Livers are shooting the ball well, the Wolverines are hard to beat. For more, here are three predictions.
