LIU Sharks vs Seton Hall Pirates Prediction - November 5, 2026

Matchup Overview

Seton Hall enters with the stronger statistical base on both sides of the ball. The Pirates are scoring 70.3 points per game while allowing 65.3, and their 43.5 field goal percentage and 30.5 three-point percentage show a team that can win without playing at a frantic pace. Their rebounding edge also matters in a matchup where extra possessions can shorten LIU’s scoring chances. LIU is a capable mid-major offense at 73.6 points per game with a 47.5 field goal percentage and a 35.8 three-point percentage, but it also allows 71.7 points per game and gives up enough efficiency to stronger opponents. The Sharks’ rebounding and shooting numbers are respectable, yet the step up in competition is significant here, especially against a Seton Hall defense rated well above LIU’s in the available data.

The projected final score is Seton Hall Pirates 75, LIU Sharks 63.
