Aces vs. Fever Prediction: Game 3 on Sept. 26
According to the initial WNBA betting lines, I’m targeting the over for my Aces vs. Fever prediction ahead of Friday’s Game 3.
The under has come through in the first two games due to the losing team not holding up their end in lopsided affairs. The total was 165.5 in Game 1, finishing below that mark by 3.5 points. Game 2 ended up seven points below the closing total of 165.
Assuming Friday’s matchup is more competitive, however, I like the chances of the two teams clearing this total.
One thing working in my favor is how much better the Fever are at home. They averaged 88.3 points per game in their 22 home contests, a scoring average that led the league and was 3.4 points more than their overall average of 84.9.
Indiana’s Aliyah Boston is one of the key players with distinct home-road splits. She averaged 16.5 points per game at home, which was three points better than her average on the road. That’s notable considering she has 16 points through two games in this series.
On the other side, the Aces are more than capable of a big offensive night.
The key to their 16-game win streak at the end of the regular season was that this team returned to being elite on the offensive end. Las Vegas led the league with an average of 88.6 points per game during that win streak.
I’ll back both teams finding offensive success in a crucial matchup on Friday.
Prediction: Over 162.5
