On Friday 2 October 2026, Las Vegas Aces play Indiana Fever in the WNBA. Our model likes 5 bets here. The one it likes most is Las Vegas Aces +1.5 on the Line, priced at -182 when we wrote this. Here is the thinking behind each pick, in plain English.
Las Vegas Aces +1.5 on the Line (-182)
Odds available at FanDuel at time of publishing
The Las Vegas Aces are on fire, winning six games in a row and scoring an impressive 91.6 points per game this season. They've also taken 8 of their last 10 matches, showing they know how to win. The Indiana Fever have been doing alright too, winning 5 of their last 10, but they scored slightly more points in their recent games at 98.0. This matchup is close, and the Fever could surprise, but I like the Aces to cover the spread with their strong performance at home. It was priced at -182 when we wrote this, so a $10 bet returns $15.50 if it lands. The number next to the team is the handicap, and that team's score is adjusted by it before the bet is settled. This is an alternate line, so it is not the main number on the board and the price moves with it. The bookmakers have this as a slight favourite. Our model leans this way without loving it. Prices move, so check the price at your bookmaker before you back it. And if this one does not feel right to you, skipping it is a perfectly good move.
Under 189.5 Total Points (-263)
Odds available at FanDuel at time of publishing
The Las Vegas Aces are on fire, winning their last six games and averaging an impressive 91.6 points per game this season. Meanwhile, the Indiana Fever have been less consistent, winning only five of their last ten and scoring a solid but lower 98.0 points per game over their last 20 matchups. With both teams in different scoring rhythms and our numbers suggesting a combined total around 167.6 points, betting on the total points to be under 189.5 makes sense. The biggest risk is that the Fever could surprise with a high-scoring game, but the Aces' strong defense should help keep the score down. It was priced at -263 when we wrote this, so a $10 bet returns $13.80 if it lands. This is an alternate line, so it is not the main number on the board and the price moves with it. The bookmakers have this as a clear favourite. Our model likes this one a lot. Prices move, so check the price at your bookmaker before you back it. And if this one does not feel right to you, skipping it is a perfectly good move.
A'ja Wilson Under 41.5 Points, Rebounds and Assists (-110)
Odds available at FanDuel at time of publishing
A'ja Wilson has been a star for the Las Vegas Aces, but she has been scoring a bit less during daylight games, averaging 24.1 points. The Aces are on a hot streak, winning six straight, but Wilson might not need to do as much against the Indiana Fever, who are known for allowing a lot of points. The Fever have been scoring well themselves, averaging 98 points across their last 20 games. However, this means Wilson could be more focused on scoring than racking up assists and rebounds. With the way things are going, betting on her to get under 41.5 combined points, rebounds, and assists seems like a solid choice, but the risk is that she can step up when needed. It was priced at -110 when we wrote this, so a $10 bet returns $19.10 if it lands. The bookmakers have this as a slight favourite. Our model leans this way without loving it. Prices move, so check the price at your bookmaker before you back it. And if this one does not feel right to you, skipping it is a perfectly good move.
Jackie Young Under 32.5 Points, Rebounds and Assists (-110)
Odds available at DraftKings at time of publishing
Jackie Young has been a solid player for the Las Vegas Aces, but he might struggle to reach big numbers in this matchup against the Indiana Fever. The Aces are on a hot streak, winning 6 in a row and scoring a lot of points, but the Fever are not pushovers, averaging 98 points in their last 20 games. This makes for a tighter game than it might seem at first. With Young averaging about 20 points and 7 assists at night, it's still a challenge to expect him to put up more than 32.5 combined points, rebounds, and assists. The Fever's defense could give him a tough time, especially since both teams are fighting hard for wins. A lower scoring game could make it even tougher for him to hit that mark. It was priced at -110 when we wrote this, so a $10 bet returns $19.10 if it lands. The bookmakers have this as a slight favourite. Our model leans this way without loving it.

Sophie Cunningham Under 8.5 Points and Rebounds (-111)
Odds available at DraftKings at time of publishing
Sophie Cunningham has struggled a bit when playing during the day, averaging only 0.8 assists in those games. With the Las Vegas Aces being on a hot streak, winning six straight games, they are likely to keep the pressure on the Indiana Fever, making it tough for Cunningham to find her rhythm. The Fever have been up and down, winning only half of their last ten games. Since the Aces are scoring an impressive 91.6 points a game, Cunningham might not get enough chances to pile up points and rebounds. This matchup feels close, but given Cunningham's recent daytime performance, betting on her to score under 8.5 points and rebounds seems smart. It was priced at -111 when we wrote this, so a $10 bet returns $19.00 if it lands. The bookmakers have this as a slight favourite. Our model leans this way without loving it. Prices move, so check the price at your bookmaker before you back it. And if this one does not feel right to you, skipping it is a perfectly good move.
That is how our model reads Las Vegas Aces v Indiana Fever. Prices move, so check the price at your bookmaker before you back anything. And if a game does not feel right to you, the strongest move is to skip it -- there is another one tomorrow.
