Dream is 1st in the East with a 7-3 record, while Sky are next to last at 4-7, with just 1-6 since losing their star Jackson, and 5 of those 6 losses came by double digits. Dream won 3 of their last 4 games, and all 3 wins were by at least 16 points, so got to expect the better Dream side to dominate here and win convincingly.

Lynx are averaging 90 points per game at home this season, while Wings are averaging 89.4 points per game this season. They played once head-to-head this season and combined for 176 points, so got to expect a slightly higher-scoring contest here as well, which should result in an over.

Both teams have been struggling offensively of late. Reds are producing just 3.2 runs scored per game over their last 10 games, while the Padres are producing 2.8 runs scored per game over their last 8 games. Reds will start Burns, who is 7-1 with a 2.05 ERA, while the Padres will start Giolito, who is 2-1 with a 4.86 ERA. They stayed below this margin in 4 of the last 5 head-to-head meetings, so got to expect a lower-scoring affair here and take the under.

Nationals are 34-33, of which 22-13 on the road, while the Giants are 27-40, of which 12-17 at home. Nationals will start Alvarez, who is 1-0 with a 3.54 ERA in 6 appearances this season, of which one was a start that saw him allow just 1 run over 4.2 innings. Giants will start Houser, who is 2-5 with a 5.49 ERA as he has been really struggling, and in his first start against the Nationals this season he allowed 5 runs in 5.2 innings. Nationals won 4 of the last 6 head-to-head meetings against the Giants and provide solid value to back to win this one as well.

Both teams play at a rather slow pace as the Valkyries play at the slowest pace, while the Mercury play at the 4th-slowest pace in the league. Neither produces many easy points, which should lead this game to a grueling, lower-scoring contest and result in an under.

Rams last won the Super Bowl in 2021 when they hosted at SoFi Stadium, and this year's Super Bowl is again being played at SoFi in LA. Rams have a superb team led by last year's MVP QB Stafford, who led them to the title in 2021. They have an amazing offense with a fantastic receiving core in the likes of excellent Nacua and Adams, alongside a whole stable of young and improving tight ends and a rock-solid run game with Williams. On the other side, their defense just got vastly improved by the addition of last season's Defensive Player of the Year, Garrett, who broke the NFL single-season sack record with 23 sacks. They also traded for two Chiefs cornerbacks, McDuffie and Watson, to fill the need in the secondary, while they also have one of the most brilliant coaching minds in McVay. After going close last year, where they lost a close one to the eventual winners in the NFC Championship game, simply got to like the Rams to go all the way this season and win another title at home in LA.
