Pronóstico: Indiana Fever vs. Phoenix Mercury

Platform comparison

Market context

The Indiana Fever face the Phoenix Mercury in a WNBA contest on 9 July, with the crowd assigning a 63% probability to an Indiana victory. This weighting aligns with the Fever’s superior recent form: they hold a 10–7 record compared to Mercury’s 5–13, and they overcame a 13-point first-quarter deficit to win 86–77 on 22 June, led by Caitlin Clark’s 24 points and Kelsey Mitchell’s 22 [1][8].

Historical head-to-heads show volatility but a Fever edge in 2025–26: Indiana won 107–101 on 30 July 2025 despite being short-handed, while Phoenix narrowly edged them 111–109 on 24 June 2026 [4][7][10]. Over the last five meetings, the Fever have won three, suggesting the current 63% probability is grounded in a tangible trend rather than sentiment alone [2][9].

Traders should monitor pre-game line-up announcements for Clark and Mitchell, whose scoring output has directly driven Indiana’s recent wins, and watch for any injury updates on Mercury’s rotation that could affect their ability to close games [1]. The game’s 10:00PM ET start on 9 July means final confirmations will arrive late in the settlement window, with no make-up game if cancelled entirely, which would force a 50–50 resolution [1].
