Atlanta Dream vs Indiana Fever Prediction and Betting Tips (July 11)

The Atlanta Dream will start a season-long six-game road trip with a showdown against the Indiana Fever on Friday. Atlanta is coming off a 90-81 win on Monday against the Golden State Valkyries, which drubbed the Fever 80-61 two nights ago. Allisha Gray and Co. look to win back-to-back games and win the season series against the Fever.

Meanwhile, the Fever hope to bounce back after an uninspiring performance against the Valkyries. Caitlin Clark returned from a five-game absence due to a groin injury, but Indiana suffered a blowout loss in front of a disappointed fan base. Aliyah Boston, Natasha Howard, Kelsey Mitchell and Clark look to end their team’s two-game losing skid.

Atlanta Dream vs Indiana Fever preview

After two closely-fought games, the Atlanta Dream dominated the Indiana Fever 77-58 on June 10. In that encounter, the Dream took advantage of Caitlin Clark’s absence to run rings around the Fever. Atlanta had more rebounds, assists, blocks and committed fewer turnovers.

Clark has returned, but the Fever were flat in their last outing. The Dream could take advantage of Indiana’s malaise by again playing with more pace, energy and hustle. Atlanta has a good chance of winning the season series 3-1 if it can sustain that kind of performance.

Meanwhile, the Fever played like Clark’s return would guarantee a win when they took on the Valkyrie. Instead, they were handed a neat lesson in chemistry and hard work by a visiting team missing a few key players.

Atlanta is healthy, making it crucial for the Fever to step up their cohesiveness and execution. The Fever aren’t going anywhere if they remain complacent.

Atlanta Dream vs Indiana Fever prediction

The Dream are the in-form team, but the Fever are raring to bounce back after two straight losses. Clark and Co. are at home and likely walking away with a win that beats the -2.5 spread.
