Match Preview 


Even if they win all their remaining games in the regular season, it’s questionable if Portland could make the playoffs. Now they battle against number one title contender Minnesota Lynx. 

Lynx Continuing Their Title Charge 


Minnesota Lynx are justifying their status as the main title candidates this season, leading the overall WNBA standings with an impressive 27-7 record. 

They recently had a 10-game winning streak that started in early July with an 86-80 victory over Connecticut Sun and included several impressive wins, but it came to an end last week after losing to underdogs Los Angeles Sparks 89-82 at home. 

The Lynx responded perfectly by taking down the reigning champions Las Vegas Aces 98-87 last weekend, winning all four quarters, and then also took down Dallas Wings 103-90 without any problems. 

Fire Finding Good Rhythm 


Portland Fire are one of the league's newer franchises and have also struggled this season, winning just 12 of their 32 games to sit 9th in the overall standings with minimal chances of reaching the playoffs. 

They had a rough start to this month, registering back-to-back defeats against Indiana Fever 112-98 and Los Angeles Sparks 106-101, then ended their five-game losing streak with a convincing 97-83 home win over Toronto Tempo. 

Portland made it two in a row last weekend, outplaying table strugglers Seattle Storm 100-93 in front of the home crowd. Their two-point shot selection was excellent here, landing 23 out of 30 attempts. Bridget Carleton was named player of the match with 24 points, six rebounds and four assists.

Verdict

Portland Fire picked up good form in the last couple of days and scored almost 200 points in their last two appearances. Minnesota Lynx are the strongest offense in the WNBA, so I am predicting a lot of points tonight.
