Fever vs. Sparks Prediction, WNBA Betting Odds & Expert Picks: Friday, Aug. 29
The Los Angeles Sparks (17-19) are longshots in the WNBA championship odds as they take on the Indiana Fever (20-18) on Friday night at 10 p.m. ET (TV: ION) from Crypto.com Arena, and I’m breaking it down with my Fever vs. Sparks prediction.
The Sparks are in a battle to make the postseason for the first time since 2020, but find themselves on the outside looking in with a handful of games remaining in the regular season.
I anticipate Sparks All-Star guard Kelsey Plum to continue her 2025 dominance over the Fever as I put together my WNBA prediction.

I think Los Angeles’ desperation to close the gap in the standings and improved play at home will be too much for a depleted Fever squad.

How do WNBA odds work?
When betting on the WNBA, the point spread shows how many points the favorite needs to win by in order to cash the bet. For example, a favorite of -5.5 must win by 6 or more points to cover the spread, while an underdog at +5.5 must win outright or lose by 5 or fewer points to cover the spread.
Moneyline odds represent the payout for picking the outright winner (+200 means a $100 bet wins $200, while -200 means a $200 bet wins $100). Over/Unders let you wager on whether the combined total will be higher or lower than the set number.
You can determine the payouts and implied probabilities for any wager - or convert odds to different formats - with our odds converter.
