Dream vs Valkyries Prediction, Picks, Odds, WNBA Finals Game 2 on Monday, October 19

The WNBA Finals return for Game 2 on Monday, October 19, as the Atlanta Dream look to even the series at 1-1 after falling to the Golden State Valkyries 68-64 in Game 1. The Valkyries, who won Game 1 in San Francisco, hold a slight edge in betting lines, with a -2.5 spread and a -145 moneyline, while the Dream are priced at +120 to pull off the upset.

The matchup will feature a key battle on the three-point line, where Atlanta ranks fifth in the league in limiting opponents’ attempts, contrasting with Golden State’s 15th-place ranking in adjusted three-point defense. The Dream also led the league in offensive rebounding percentage, which could give them an advantage in creating second-chance opportunities.

With the over/under set at 152.5, the game is expected to be closely contested, and the Dream’s ability to execute in the fourth quarter will be critical after struggling in that phase of Game 1. The matchup will air live on Peacock at 8:00 p.m.

ET at Chase Center in San Francisco.
