Connecticut Sun will host Minnesota Lynx in Game 3 of this thrilling WNBA playoff matchup on Friday. The Sun, second in the Eastern Conference, surprised everyone after defeating the No. 2 seed 73-70 on the road in Game 1. After getting results in Minneapolis, the Sun will want to stamp their authority in this series with back-to-back wins at the Mohegan Sun Arena before the decisive Game 5 in Minnesota. However, the Lynx have been the best WNBA team since the Olympic break for a reason. They were unlucky to lose Game 1 after the Sun’s veterans prevented them from playing their fast-paced game. We expect the Sun to be more open in Connecticut, which could play into the hands of Minnesota.

Our Connecticut Sun vs Minnesota Lynx Prediction
If the stats are anything to go by, the Lynx have their work cut out in this series. The Sun have won three of their last four meetings with Minnesota at the Mohegan Sun Arena. They also have 12 wins in their previous 15 clashes with Connecticut. The Sun can complicate things for Minnesota, thanks to their solid defensive stat this season of 73.6 PAPG. However, Minnesota can also produce a defensive masterclass after giving up an average of 75.6 points per match this season. It’s unsurprising that Game 1 wasn’t a high-scoring affair.
