Portland Fire +12.5 on the Line (-110)

Portland Fire has had a tough time lately, winning only 1 of their last 6 games. They've faced some of the hardest teams in the league, which makes their current form a bit tricky. However, they're playing at home, and with Golden State Valkyries coming in strong, the Fire might be more motivated to make a statement. Golden State has been on fire, winning 8 of their last 10 games and scoring a solid average of 82.6 points. Despite this, our numbers suggest that Portland can keep the game closer than expected. The most concrete risk is that the Fire are still struggling overall, but catching them at home gives them a chance to keep it within range. Taking Portland Fire +12.5 seems like a smart play here. It was priced at -110 when we wrote this, so a $10 bet returns $19.10 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. 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.
