These are two teams headed in completely different directions. The Liberty have fallen off a cliff in recent weeks, especially since losing Breanna Stewart to a knee injury. New York has failed to cover in eight straight games, including losing outright to this Sparks team as an 11-point favorite. Led by Kelsey Plum (19.8 PPG), Los Angeles has won nine of its last 11 games and is 8-2 ATS since mid-July. With one of the league's top offenses, the Sparks should play the Liberty tight again.

Golden State already has two outright wins as an underdog in this head-to-head series this year. The Valkyries earned a 76-74 home win as 5-point underdogs, following that up with a 68-67 victory as 4-point road dogs. Let’s make it three for three, shall we?

Free WNBA moneyline picks

A moneyline bet in WNBA betting is straightforward - you’re simply picking which team will win the game. There’s no need to worry about the point spread. Just choose the outright winner.

Example:

TeamMoneyline Odds
Las Vegas Aces+125
New York Liberty-150
  • Bet $100 on the Aces (+125) → Win $125 (total payout: $225)
  • Bet $150 on the Liberty (–150) → Win $100 (total payout: $250)

If your team wins, your bet cashes. Moneyline odds reflect the favorite (negative odds) and the underdog (positive odds). In the example above, the Liberty are favored, while an Aces win offers a bigger return.

Some sportsbooks also offer moneyline bets by half or quarter, giving you more ways to back a hot start or a comeback with pre-game or live betting.

Free WNBA Over/Under picks

Totals betting in the WNBA is all about how many points will be scored in a game - regardless of which team wins.

  • Typical line: Over/Under 165.5
  • Bet the Over if you expect a fast-paced, high-scoring game
  • Bet the Under if you’re anticipating a defensive battle or slower tempo
  • Odds are usually around –110 on both sides

Example:

Let’s say the Over/Under for a game between the Chicago Sky and Connecticut Sun is set at 165.5.

  • If the final score is 88-82 (total 170), the Over wins
  • If it ends 81-79 (total 160), the Under wins

Most totals include a .5 hook to avoid a push (a tie). If the total were set at 165 and the game ended with exactly 165 points, it would be a push, and all bets would be refunded.

You can also bet on team totals (how many points one team scores), first-half totals, or alternate totals with adjusted odds, risk, and payout.

Free WNBA spread picks

Spread betting in the WNBA levels the playing field by assigning a point margin that the favorite must cover in a win - or the underdog must stay within in a loss.

  • The favorite must win by more than the spread to cover (e.g. -5.5 = win by 6+)
  • The underdog covers by either winning outright or losing by fewer points than the spread (e.g. +5.5 = lose by 5 or less)
  • Great for spotting value if you think a team will blow out its opponent - or keep it tight

Example:

MatchupSpreadOdds
Las Vegas Aces-6.5-110
Dallas Wings+6.5-110
  • Bet on the Aces -6.5 → they must win by 7+ points
  • Bet on the Wings +6.5 → they cover by losing by 6 or fewer, or winning outright

Spread bets are especially useful in games with clear mismatches, key injuries, or when one team is on a hot streak against the number.

Free WNBA prop picks

WNBA player props let you bet on individual player performances, such as points, assists, rebounds, 3-pointers made, or blocks.

Example props (Caitlin Clark):

  • Caitlin Clark Over 21.5 points (-110)
  • Caitlin Clark Over 6.5 assists (+100)
  • Caitlin Clark to make 4+ 3-pointers (+180)

These bets are perfect for backing rising stars or fading players in tough matchups. Look at stats like usage rate, recent form, opponent defensive ratings, or pace of play to help identify value.

You can also use alternate lines to customize your wager based on confidence. If you strongly believe Clark will have a big game, consider betting on her to score 25+ points at longer odds.

Alternate lines with shorter odds can also be used in parlays or same-game parlays (SGPs) to boost your overall payout while keeping each leg relatively safe. For example, pairing Clark Over 2.5 assists (-200) with another high-probability prop can increase your value without adding much risk.

How we make our WNBA picks & predictions

Our WNBA picks and predictions prioritize one thing - getting you the best line. Odds can shift quickly in the WNBA, so shopping around for the best number is essential. Why bet -125 on a spread when you can get -110 at another sportsbook for the exact same play?

Our analysis goes beyond box scores. We dig into advanced stats like usage rate, pace, true shooting percentage, rebounding rate, and player efficiency rating (PER). These metrics help spot teams or players due for positive regression - or continued struggles. Many of our WNBA prop picks are driven by trends in minutes played, matchup history, and team rotations.

Favorites don't always cover, and underdogs often offer strong value, especially in close matchups or during back-to-backs. Our advice: stay objective, find the best number, and let the data guide your bets.
