Bettors don't believe in the Connecticut Sun ahead of Game 3, even as the home favorite
There’s a lot going on in the world of sports this Thursday. Boxing might have its next big fight, Thursday Night Football should be a doozy for the NFL and Tennis is losing another great to retirement.
And as headline-grabbing, as those above topics are, there’s a chance that Thursday night could include bringing home the firstWNBA championship for the Las Vegas Aces.
The Aces are up 2-0 on the Sun as the Finals head back to Connecticut for Game 3. They’ll have a shot on Thursday night to close the series out in three games, which is exactly what bettors are expecting to happen.
At Tipico Sportsbook, 83 percent of tickets are moneyline bets with the Aces winning outright, and 100 percent of the tickets have Vegas covering the spread (+1.5).
Apparently, there’s little-to-no faith from the public when it comes to the home favorites (-1.5). The Sun had the second-best home record in the league during the regular season and will need to be as good if they want to extend their season.
