Connecticut Sun
Win Home
34.00
The WNBA matchup between the Connecticut Sun and the Atlanta Dream on September 10, 2025, promises to be an intriguing contest, especially with the odds heavily favoring the Dream. As the home team, the Sun are listed at 8.00, making them significant underdogs, while the Dream come in as road favorites at 1.08. This disparity suggests bookmakers see Atlanta as a lock, but I'm eyeing an upset here for a potentially massive payout.
Looking at recent form, the Connecticut Sun have been building momentum towards the end of the season. Their defense, anchored by players like Alyssa Thomas and DeWanna Bonner, has been stout, allowing the fewest points per game in the league. The Sun excel in forcing turnovers and controlling the paint, which could disrupt Atlanta's rhythm. Moreover, playing at home in Mohegan Sun Arena gives them a boost— they've won 70% of their home games this season, often thriving in high-pressure situations.
On the other side, the Atlanta Dream boast a talented roster with stars like Rhyne Howard and Allisha Gray, who can light up the scoreboard from beyond the arc. Their offense ranks in the top tier, averaging over 85 points per game. However, road games have been their Achilles' heel, with a sub-.500 record away from home. Fatigue could play a factor too, as this late-season game follows a grueling schedule, and Atlanta has shown vulnerability against physical teams like Connecticut.
Statistically, the Sun have covered the spread in 6 of their last 8 home games against Eastern Conference opponents. Atlanta, while dominant, has failed to cover in 4 of their last 5 road tilts. Head-to-head, Connecticut has won 3 of the last 5 meetings, including a nail-biter earlier this year where they edged out the Dream by 4 points. If the Sun can limit Atlanta's three-point shooting and capitalize on second-chance opportunities, they could pull off the win.
From a betting perspective, putting $1 on the Sun at 8.00 offers a potential $7 profit if they triumph—far more lucrative than the meager returns from backing the favorite. This isn't just a hunch; it's based on trends showing underdogs with strong home defense often surprise in the WNBA. For enthusiasts, this is the kind of high-value bet that makes sports wagering exciting. Keep an eye on injury reports, but as it stands, I'm riding with the Sun for the upset.
