Fever at Aces picks and predictions
Prediction
Aces 94, Fever 85
Backing Las Vegas (-1050) will cost more than 10 times the potential return, and that’s way too much risk for not enough reward. Even as part of a multi-leg parlay, including the Aces sucks all of the value out of your ticket.
PASS and look to the spread instead.
TAKE INDIANA +13 (-110) as an underdog catching double digits.
The last time the Fever visited the Aces, Las Vegas came away with a 19-point win, flirting with triple digits on offense. However, the Aces are just 3-6 ATS in the past 9 games, while going just 1-4 ATS in the past 5 outings as a favorite of 7 or more points.
The Fever were struggling with hero ball, while failing to generate much in the way of consistency in the first meeting. However, Indiana has jelled nicely over the past month and is 6-1 ATS in the past 7 games, including an outright win at Phoenix as an 8-point underdog last time out in an 88-82 win.
OVER 175 (-108) is always a strong play in Fever games. The Under has hit in the past 2 games, but the Over is still 8-2 across the past 10 contests, and 14-4 in the previous 18 outings.
The Over cashed in the 1st meeting at home against the Aces, too, as these teams combined for 179 points with a total of 174.5 on the board.
For the Aces, the Under and Over have alternated in 6 games, while the Over is 5-3 across the previous 8 outings.
