Chicago Sky vs. Phoenix Mercury Odds and Prediction for WNBA Finals Game 1
By Peter Dewey
The Chicago Sky and Phoenix Mercury have both made Cinderella runs to the WNBA Finals, and they face off in Game 1 this afternoon.
Diana Taurasi, Brittney Griney, and company come into this one as the favorites against Candace Parker and the Sky, as WynnBET Sportsbook currently lists the Mercury 2.5-point home favorites and -150 (bet $150 to profit $100) on the moneyline.
Here are the odds for the matchup:
Chicago Sky vs. Phoenix Mercury Odds
Spread:
Sky +2.5 (-110)
Mercury -2.5 (-110)
Moneyline:
Sky: +130
Mercury: -150
Total: 167.0 (Over -110/Under -110)
Chicago Sky vs. Phoenix Mercury Prediction
Both teams have great momentum coming off of upsets in the previous round, but I can’t help but back Taurasi and the Mercury in this one.
Griner and Taurasi combined for 52 points in Game 5 against the Las Vegas Aces to pick up an 87-84 win to advance to the WNBA Finals.
Considering the Mercury are at home, and their team total is set at just 85 points (they’ve gone over that in four of their last five games) give me Phoenix and the team total over for this matchup.
