Villanova is back in Philadelphia for a 4-game homestand, with some crucial opponents at the top of the Big East standings coming up this week. First up is Creighton, who like Villanova has been hit by the injury bug.
The Bluejays lost breakout star Martin Krampelj for the year, but are still rolling right along at 17-5 overall with a 7-3 mark in the Big East. Marcus Foster leads a potent offensive attack with a lot of weapons.
Villanova snuck by Marquette on Sunday despite another lackluster defensive effort, and Jay Wright will certainly hope he gets more on that end of the floor on Thursday night.
