Portland Fire (15-21) will host Washington Mystics (21-15) on Sunday night in a high-stakes matchup at Moda Center. The Fire are still firmly in the race to clinch a postseason spot despite sitting 5.5 games behind the eighth-placed Dallas Wings. This means that the Fire must win at least seven games and hope that the Wings drop their remaining seven assignments. The odds are clearly against them, although they’ll still take their chances.

Washington Mystics, on the other hand, have gone on a late-season surge to put themselves in playoff contention. The visitors have gone 7-3 in their last 10 assignments to take the seventh spot, 0.5 games ahead of the Wings. This game difference could’ve been more comfortable if not for the 84-94 home defeat against the Lynx on Friday night. Books are backing them to bounce back with a win as the -190 betting favorites.
