Dream vs Valkyries Prediction
The Valkyries are a good team that’s worth a look in the underdog role, but they’re not the same on the road as they are at home. The Dream have lost 4 straight games, but this feels like a bounce-back spot at home where they’re 6-2 SU. This is also an early start, which can throw off a team on a West Coast body clock. I just don’t expect these struggles to last forever, and this is a revenge spot after the Valkyries beat the Dream twice last month at home. The line is reasonable. Give me the Dream for a much-needed win.
