Dream vs Fire Prediction
Thick number for a Dream team that’s been on the struggle bus over the last couple of weeks. I’d also like to know the status of Reese before clicking the button. However, the Fire have been badly outplayed when stepping up in competition this season, and that includes losing at home to the Dream by 20 points back in May. The Fire are 2-4 ATS in their last 6 games as a double-digit underdog. Now, the Dream has failed to cover 7 straight games. Still, this has more to do with the Fire than anything. I’ll lay the points assuming Reese will play.
