Golden State Valkyries will be looking to put further pressure on top-of-the-table Minnesota Lynx when they take on Portland Fire in their WNBA match. Valkyries are in great form, on a W4 streak and a last 10 record of 8-2. Portland Fire is now out of playoff contention after five defeats from their last six, with a last 10 record of 4-6. 

Valkyries are two Games Back from Lynx, another win here is likely. They hold a 15-5 record at home, with Fire holding an 8-12 record on the road. Golden State has also won the last two head-to-head meetings between the sides.

While we're expecting a Valkyries win, and a comfortable on at that. Golden State have won their last four matchups by 14 points or more. In two of Fire's last four defeats, they've been beaten by 17 points or more. With the gulf in class between the two sides, for our prediction we're looking at the Handicap market and think Valkyries will win by 12.5 points or more.
