Liberty vs Valkyries Prediction
The Liberty just had their way with the Valkyries a couple of days ago and are more than capable of doing it again. However, you usually see a more competitive game when teams meet for a second time in a short span. There’s more familiarity with the teams. Also, the Liberty is still 7-15 ATS in their last 22 games as a double-digit favorite. The Liberty also plays on Friday, so this could be a win and get out situation with them on the front end of a back-to-back. I’ll take a stab with the Valkyries and the free buckets.
