We should be in for an intriguing matchup as New York Liberty head to the PHX Arena to face Phoenix Mercury in the WNBA. While the Liberty are clear favorites to win the match, they must be wary of a resurging Mercury who are on a three game win streak. Mercury's PCT still stands at a poor .379 but their recent victories would've given Phoenix a much needed confidence boost. As for the Liberty, they have a PCT of a respectable, if not spectacular, .552. New York were themselves on a three match win streak but this came to an end as they lost 104-99 to Las Vegas Aces.

Mercury's home record leaves a lot to be desired, with five wins and nine defeats. Liberty on the road has an 8-8 record. New York also have an impressive recent record against Mercury, winning the last two head-to-heads. 

While this is a match the Liberty should win, the odds on their victory don't provide much value, especially when you consider the current form of Phoenix Mercury. Instead, our pick is based on the Totals market. Over 175.5 points have been scored in each of Liberty's last six WMBA games. In four of Mercury's last six games, over 175.5 points have been netted.

Our Phoenix Mercury vs New York Liberty Prediction

The Moneyline odds suggest that the Liberty are clear favorites to win. While we find it difficult to disagree, Phoenix Mercury's recent resurgence has made us think twice about a straight win bet. In addition, the odds on the Liberty win don't offer us a great deal of value. Whatever the result, we're predicting a high number of points to be scored. True, recent games between the two sides haven't yielded a huge amount of points but we're expecting this to change here.

Our prediction for Mercury vs Liberty is: Over 175.5 Points
