DePaul opens a three-game road stretch Tuesday at Seton Hall, looking to rebound from a 4-0 loss to Marquette and strengthen its position in BIG EAST play. The Blue Demons bring a slight edge in the all-time series, while the Pirates arrive on a two-game winning streak and have yet to lose at home this season.

By the Numbers
  • DePaul: 4-4-5 overall, 1-2-2 in BIG EAST play.
  • Seton Hall: 5-3-6 overall, 2-1-2 in BIG EAST play.
  • DePaul averages 2.54 assists and 15.6 shots per game, ranking 13th and 19th nationally, respectively.
  • Noeh Hernandez leads DePaul with 6 goals, 7 assists and 19 points.
  • Seton Hall goalkeeper Devin Armstrong has 8 shutouts and a 0.86 goals-against average.
  • DePaul leads the series 6-4-3.
Yes, But

DePaul’s recent 4-0 defeat snapped a three-match unbeaten streak, but the team previously earned wins over UConn and Western Michigan. Seton Hall has momentum and a strong home record, though six of its 14 games have ended in ties.

State of Play
  • Kickoff is Tuesday, Oct. 27, at 6 p.m. CT at Owen T. Carroll Field; the match streams on ESPN+.
  • The game was moved from Sept. 26 because of weather on the East Coast.
  • DePaul’s final two regular-season games are at Butler on Oct. 31 and at Creighton on Nov. 6.
Bottom Line

DePaul faces a timely test on the road: a win could help the Blue Demons regain momentum, but they’ll need to break through against an unbeaten-at-home Seton Hall side.
