The Las Vegas Aces and Golden State Valkyries will play the second game of a home-and-home series on Wednesday night as they meet at the Chase Center in San Francisco.
Las Vegas got the best of Sunday’s game, but I’m backing Golden State to cover at home in my Aces vs. Valkyries predictions below.
Keep reading for a breakdown of tonight’s battle of teams on the playoff bubble in my free WNBA picks for Wednesday, August 6.
Aces vs Valkyries predictions
My Aces vs Valkyries best bet: Valkyries +5.5 (-110 at BetMGM)
Sunday’s matchup was a rough one for the Golden State Valkyries, as the Las Vegas Aces ran away with a 101-77 win at home. But that was the finale of a strong road trip for the Valkyries, who had won three straight away from home before that defeat.
Outside of that Sunday loss, Golden State has looked much better against the Aces this year. Earlier in July, the Valkyries lost by just two in Las Vegas, while they scored a 27-point win in June at home as 12.5-point underdogs.
Golden State has been consistently outperforming expectations as an expansion team this year.
The Valkyries rank fifth in the league in defensive rating, something they’ve relied on even as they lost their best scorer in Kayla Thornton for the year to a knee injury. Golden State is 4-2 since Thornton went down.
The Aces continue to have an up-and-down season, going 3-3 in their last six without a single game being decided by less than 10 points.
With Tiffany Hayes likely back in the lineup for Golden State tonight, I like the Valkyries to bounce back at home and cover as an underdog in a game they might win outright.
Aces vs Valkyries same-game parlay (SGP)
Valkyries +5.5
Over 158.5
Tiffany Hayes Over 13.5 points
Along with taking the Valkyries to cover tonight, I’m also backing the Over.
The first three meetings between these teams this season all hit the Over with totals of at least 178 points in their last two contests.
In a high scoring environment, I’ll also take Tiffany Hayes to hit her scoring Over at 13.5 points, as she’s picking up more of the slack with Kayla Thornton out for the year.
