Sparks vs. Fever prediction and odds for Tuesday, Aug. 8 (Fade Indiana at home)

The Indiana Fever are looking for some revenge against the Los Angeles Sparks after losing two games to them at the end of last month.

Indiana is just 2-8 in its last 10 games and currently sits in last place in the Eastern Conference.

The Sparks (10-18) have really struggled on the road this season, going just 3-10 in 13 games.

Even though the Sparks are down Lexie Brown, Katie Lou Samuelson, Nia Clouden and Chiney Ogwumike, they may have an edge over a Fever team that could be without NaLyssa Smith (questionable).

Let’s dive into the odds and my best bet for this game:

Sparks vs. Fever odds, spread and total

Sparks vs. Fever prediction and pick

The Fever have really struggled in the second half of this season after a fast start to the season.

The team has also been brutal at home, going just 2-9 straight up and 4-7 against the spread.

That’s going to be a problem against a Sparks team that handled the Fever in two matchups in Los Angeles, winning the second game by double digits.

If Smith sits, I question how much offense the Fever will have in this game. The team has scored fewer than 80 points in six straight contests, failing to clear 75 points in five of those games.

While Los Angeles is down some key rotation pieces, it still has star Nneka Ogwumike to lead the way. I’ll fade the Fever even with the Sparks road struggles in 2023.
