The Toronto Tempo (10-16) visit the Minnesota Lynx (22-6) for a 2026 WNBA regular season matchup on Tuesday, July 28, at Target Center.
These two teams faced each other once this season, with the Lynx coming out on top, 100-72. With the Lynx's defense clamping down on them, the Tempo failed to even reach 20 points in each of the first three quarters.
Minnesota's defensive performance in that game wasn't a surprise, given that they currently have the second-best defensive rating in the league (103.7). Their work on that end has been a driver in their current seven-game winning streak.
Most recently, the Lynx defeated the Seattle Storm, 86-76. Napheesa Collier hauled down a double-double of 24 points and 10 rebounds for Minnesota.
As for the Tempo, they're coming off a painful 109-83 loss to the Las Vegas Aces. Their lackluster defense allowed the Aces to make 57.7% of their shots. That has been a big problem for Toronto, as they rank dead last in the league in defensive rating (116.1), a stark contrast to Minnesota's strong defense.
The loss to the Aces was the Tempo's seventh defeat in the last eight games. They'll be hard-pressed to do better against a streaking Lynx squad.

Our Minnesota Lynx vs Toronto Tempo Prediction
The Lynx dominated the Tempo in their first game back in May, and there's no reason to doubt it will happen again on Tuesday. They have won their last seven games, and they have the better offensive and defensive rating than Toronto.
Unfortunately for the Tempo, it looks like their current slump will continue on Tuesday. Our prediction for the Minnesota Lynx vs Toronto Tempo match is: Lynx (-15.5) cover the spread.
