Minnesota Lynx (19-6) will look to keep the fire burning when they face Portland Fire (11-4) on Saturday night at Target Center. The Lynx are riding on a four-game winning run, leaving them on top of the Western Conference, a game ahead of the Valkyries. In their latest assignment, they defeated the Sparks 96-87 at home with Kyla McBride tallying 24 points. Bookmakers are backing them to win again this weekend as the heavy -900 betting favorites.
Portland Fire, on the other side of the court, are the +500 betting underdogs on Saturday. The Fire will be seeking to make it two wins on the bounce after defeating Washington Mystics 56-75 on Thursday night. It was a sweet win for the Fire, who avenged their painful 1-point overtime loss against the Mystics late last month. However, they’ll know that they must score more points to stand a chance against the Lynx on the road.

Our Minnesota Lynx vs Portland Fire Prediction
Minnesota Lynx will surely win this matchup. They’re in a tight race at the top of the league with the Valkyries and the Aces, with only 1.5 games separating them. The Lynx have been in strong form at home lately, winning nine of their last 11 matches. However, our money is on Portland Fire to cover the +13.5 line because they’ve looked competitive in recent games. The visitors have scored an average of 88.4 PPG in the last 10 games while tallying an average of 31.3 rebounds per game. They may also fancy their chances against the Lynx, who may be without Olivia Miles. The rookie walked off the court with a twisted ankle against the Sparks and didn’t return to the game afterwards. Still, the hosts should win on Saturday even without Miles.
Our prediction for Minnesota Lynx vs Portland Fire: Portland Fire on the +13.5 line.
