New York at Los Angeles

A pair of teams meet who had to play last night. First-place New York opened as a dog to a bad Los Angeles team, which is surprising. New York is a strong team in the East and even has a winning road record. The Liberty is tops in the WNBA in rebounding and third in points allowed, both key factors if you want to play well on the road. New York is 4-0 ATS playing on no days rest and on a 6-2 ATS run overall. New York is 2-0 SU on this four game road trip, winning at Seattle last night, 81-77. Tina Charles had 18 points and 14 boards against the Phoenix Mercury before scoring a season-high 30 versus the Storm. Last-place Los Angeles is 16-33-2 ATS in their last 51 home games, plus 10-21 ATS against a team with a winning record.  Los Angeles is 10th in the WNBA in scoring and rebounding, plus nineth in points allowed. The Sparks will play one final time without two-time MVP Candace Parker. The Sparks got a rare win last night, but are 6-14 ATS following a win and 1-7 ATS playing on no days rest. The Sparks are also 0-5 straight up against the East while the Liberty are 5-1 versus the West. New York is 9-3 ATS against the Sparks, including 12-1 ATS at Los Angeles, and the wagering value is for the first-place visitors to win the game. Play the New York Liberty.
