The Seattle Storm will hope to break an eight-game losing streak when they visit the New York Liberty, who are 7.5-point favorites at Barclays Center.

New York has been pushing totals into the stratosphere lately, and I'm backing the Over in my Storm vs. Liberty predictions for tonight.

Storm vs Liberty prediction

Storm vs Liberty best bet: Over 182.5 (-110)

Since July 11, the Seattle Storm and New York Liberty have combined to hit the Over in 14 out of 15 games. The Liberty have played to an average total of 194.0 points over their last eight contests, while Seattle has hit 200+ total points in three of its last five outings.

New York's offense is averaging 108.3 points per 100 possessions, and will be sped up by Seattle, which ranks fifth in the WNBA in possessions per 40 minutes.

We're going to see a ton of offense tonight, and I'd take the Over at up to 184.5 points.

Covers COVERS INTEL: The Storm give up 17.4 ppg off turnovers and another 13.1 second-chance points per game. That will only aid the Liberty offense in hitting tonight's total.

Storm vs Liberty same-game parlay

The Liberty haven't managed to cover in any of their last seven games, but I see them bucking that trend tonight.

New York is at home, playing against a Seattle team that has lost eight straight, including three in a row by at least nine points. The Storm are also 2-14 away from home this season.

I'll also take Sabrina Ionescu to hit Over 2.5 threes tonight.  Ionesco is coming off a 27-point performance on Saturday in which she hit four shots from deep, the third time in her last four games that she's made at least four 3-pointers.

Tonight's game should be played quickly and see lots of points scored, allowing Ionescu to continue firing away from beyond the arc.

Ed Scimia has been writing about the gaming industry for over 15 years. He graduated from Syracuse University with degrees in Magazine Journalism and Political Science in 2003, and has covered major gambling events like the World Series of Poker in his career. Since joining Covers in 2022, Ed has offered his sports betting analysis primarily on MLB, NFL, college football, and college basketball games, but is willing to take on any sport.

His betting strategy focuses more on finding line value based on deviations from the market rather than traditional handicapping, primarily shopping between DraftKings, FanDuel, and Fanatics in his home state of Connecticut, though he’s not afraid to do deep game analysis to find profitable bets at any book.

Outside of gambling, Ed is an avid curler who competes in mixed doubles on the World Curling Tour and runs a popular curling YouTube channel, Chess on Ice. That experience has come in handy during the Olympics, when he has proven to be a successful curling bettor as well. 

Ed's advice to new bettors is to always open multiple sportsbook accounts and check the odds at each before placing any bet. Successful sports betting is about consistently beating the closing line value, which requires finding spots where one book is offering odds far better than the rest of the market and jumping on those opportunities.
