Simon Dalton presents his prediction for the WNBA match.
The Connecticut Sun are in the midst of a rebuilding phase, and their 3-18 record reflects just that. However, they often manage to test even the strongest opponents when playing at home.
Connecticut Sun
On their home court, the Sun have consistently kept contests close: in six of their last seven home defeats, the losing margin did not exceed 18 points. They've also recorded two wins — against the Atlanta Dream and the Seattle Storm. It's important to highlight that the Connecticut Sun have already beaten the Indiana Fever once this season in an away fixture (85:83).
Indiana Fever
While the Indiana Fever boast a positive overall record (11:10), their performances on the road have been far less convincing. Of their four away victories, three came by margins of no more than eight points, and they lost the other four. On the defensive end, the Fever have struggled — conceding an average of 79.5 points per game, the sixth-highest mark in the WNBA.
Connecticut Sun vs Indiana Fever Prediction
The Connecticut Sun have shown they can stay competitive and avoid blowout losses. They tend to play with determination at home, while the Indiana Fever have been unreliable away from home. The value lies in backing a generous handicap in favour of the hosts.
