Chicago Sky at Minnesota Lynx odds, picks and predictions

The Chicago Sky (11-20) and Minnesota Lynx (23-9) meet Sunday at Target Center in Minneapolis. Tip-off is scheduled for 3 p.m. ET. Let’s analyze FanDuel Sportsbook’s lines around the Sky vs. Lynx odds, and make our expert WNBA picks and predictions.
Season series: Lynx lead 1-0
These teams met in Chicago earlier this season on June 30, and Minnesota picked up a 70-62 win while narrowly covering as 7-point favorites as the Under (163) connected.
Chicago suffered a 100-81 loss against the Indiana Fever at home on Friday, coming nowhere near covering as a 6.5-point underdog as the Over (163.5) cashed.
In the losing effort, rookie F Angel Reese had 10 points with 11 rebounds, staying in until the final moments of a blowout to secure the double-double. As such, with the 23rd double-double of the season, she passed Tina Charles for the most double-doubles for a rookie in a single season. In addition, she also passed Charles for the rookie record of rebounds in a single season.
The Sky have dropped 5 straight games, while going 2-8 across the past 10 outings. Chicago is just 4-6 against the spread (ATS) in that 10-game span.
The Lynx was blown out in Dallas on Friday, falling 94-76 as a 7.5-point favorite as the Under (170.5) cashed. That snapped a 7-game win streak, and a 6-game cover run. The Over is 4-2 across the previous 6 outings.

Lynx 86, Sky 69
Backing Minnesota (-800) straight, or as part of a multi-leg parlay, is not a recommended betting strategy. As a standalone wager, you must risk 8 times your potential return, and that’s just not terribly smart.
AVOID.
Take MINNESOTA -11.5 (-114) laying the points, as it has been money against the spread lately.
The Lynx failed to cover in the loss in the Metroplex on Friday, but Minnesota is 6-1 ATS across the past 7 outings since emerging from the Olympic break.
For Chicago +11.5 (-106), it has failed to cover the past 2 outings, while going just 5-7 ATS in the previous 12 outings. As a double-digit underdog, though, Chicago has covered 3 straight, while going 4-1 ATS this season, so be careful.
UNDER 157.5 (-110) is worth a look, but it could be a close shave.
The Under cashed in the 1st meeting back on June 30, as the teams combined for just 132 points with a total of 163.
Minnesota has cashed low on the total in 6 of the past 8 home games. For Chicago, the Under has a 3-2 edge in the past 5 contests.
