Tempo vs. Valkyries Prediction, Spread, Over/Under – Tuesday, August 4

Golden State seeks its third win over Toronto this season after knocking off the Tempo at Chase Center by 17 points. The Valkyries led the Tempo at halftime, 44-43, but outscored them 52-36 in the second half to cash as 14.5-point favorites.

Toronto’s leading scorer G Marina Mabrey (20.9 PPG) sat out with a strained neck and is questionable for tonight’s rematch. 

This has been a gauntlet no team wants to go through, much less an expansion team on a losing streak. Since edging the Liberty on July 12, the Tempo lost to the Mystics, Dream, Aces, Lynx twice, and Valkyries — all teams with winning records.

During this cold stretch, Toronto is 1-5 against the spread (ATS), with the lone cover coming as 16.5-point underdogs at Minnesota on July 28. 

Golden State allows the fewest PPG (77.0) and the second-lowest field goal percentage (42.6%) in the league. However, the Valkyries are riding a three-game over streak after hitting the over of 164.5.
