Phoenix Mercury (2-2) and Toronto Tempo (2-2) will clash on Tuesday night at PHX Arena. The Mercury have had a bitter-sweet start, and will look to be more consistent going forward. They managed to recover from their back-to-back losses against the Lynx and the Valkyries to defeat the Sky 91-83 at home. Nate Tibbetts will be keen to see his side maximize their home advantage, with another home game coming up against the Sparks on Thursday night.

Toronto Tempo, meanwhile, are settling in nicely into their inaugural season in the Eastern Conference. The Tempo have found ways to bounce back from defeats this season, although they also need to be more consistent. They’re coming off a 96-106 win over the Sparks on the road on Sunday, with Brittney Sykes leading the team with a game-high of 38 points. Kiki Rice also had a great outing, registering 19 points and five rebounds. They can be unplayable on a good day.

Our Phoenix Mercury vs Toronto Tempo Prediction

The Mercury are the -350 favorites, which has little betting value. They’ve looked convincing at home this season, with their only defeat being the close 4-point loss against the Lynx. The Mercury’s offense has looked lively at home, scoring an average of 87 points in their last five matches. In fact, they’ve scored over 80.5 points in each of their last seven home games. However, Toronto Tempo has enough attacking threat to cause an upset against an elite team like Phoenix. Marina Mabrey and Brittney Sykes have scored an average of 20 and 19.7 PPG, respectively, this season. The duo should trouble the Mercury at PHX Arena, with the total points going over 170.5. Still, we’re backing Phoenix to edge it.
