LA Sparks (10-15) and Phoenix Mercury (9-18) will go head-to-head on Wednesday night at Crypto.com Arena. The Sparks have not lived up to expectations this season, sitting in sixth place in the Western Conference. They’ll be shooting to end their four-game slide with the latest being a 90-82 defeat on the road to the Wings. This was their seventh straight defeat away from home. Still, bookmakers are favoring them to win at -130 odds.
Phoenix Mercury, on the other side of the hardwood, is another team that has disappointed the fans so far this season. Many expected them to dominate the regular season after reaching last year's finals. However, lack of team chemistry has seen them struggle for most of the campaign, leaving them second-last in the West. However, the Mercury will want to build on their 72-63 win over the Sun on Sunday night.

Our L.a. Sparks vs Phoenix Mercury Prediction
Both teams are struggling, so we’ll back the Sparks to win purely because of their home advantage. The Mercury haven’t looked very comfortable playing on the road, going 5-7 throughout the season. They may struggle to contain the Sparks, who will be hungry to win and stop the slide. The hosts have been scoring points for fun at home lately, scoring 106 points against the Fever and 102 against the Sky. These results show the Sparks can go toe-to-toe with the Mercury when it comes to scoring points. The Mercury haven’t been convincing in this area, scoring an average of 82.9 PPG this season. We don’t see them winning on the road tonight.
Our prediction for LA Sparks vs Phoenix Mercury: LA Sparks to win.
