Our Minnesota Lynx vs New York Liberty Prediction

Minnesota is the heavy favorite in this game; however, New York looks to be the best betting option. For one, these teams have already met twice this season, with both the Liberty and the Lynx winning once.

The first meeting was won by New York by a score of 99-86, while the second meeting was won by Minnesota by a score of 90-85. In this regard, the Liberty have covered the spread twice against the Lynx this season.

Ultimately, the spread in this game appears to be too high, so with both sides looking to improve their playoff seeding or, in Minnesota’s case, secure the number one seed, our Minnesota Lynx vs. New York Liberty prediction is: New York Liberty +7.5.

Prediction:

 

New York Liberty +7.5
