Both Mercury and Liberty finished with the same 27-17 record, but the former received the No. 4 seed and home-court advantage owing to their head-to-head record against the reigning champions.&nbsp;<\/p><p>The Mercury head into the playoffs on the back of a three-game losing streak, having slumped to the Dallas Wings in a blowout fashion. The Mercury displayed poor offensive prowess and only two players managed to finish in double digits, including Satou Sabally with 14 points, and Kalani Brown with 12 points.&nbsp;<\/p><p>On the other hand, the Liberty are in winning momentum, having won each of their last three games. In their last regular season fixture, they took down the Chicago Sky 91-86. Breanna Stewart led the charts with 24 points, followed by Rebekah Gardner, who poured in 15 points off the bench.&nbsp;<\/p><p>Would the Mercury be able to use their home advantage to edge out the defending champions and kick off their playoff campaign with a victory?

They won six back-to-back clashes before suffering in the last three games. They went 3-1 against the Liberty in the season. They maintain a solid offensive rating of 103.6 and defensive rating of 100.6.&nbsp;<\/p><p>Here are a few stats about them:&nbsp;<\/p><ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Phoenix has a 13-11 conference record, and 15-7 record at home.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Satou Sabally has recorded single-digit performance in only five of the Mercury&rsquo;s regular season games.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Alyssa Thomas recorded 14 double-doubles this season.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Phoenix Mercury Expected Lineup&nbsp;<\/h3><p>Alyssa Thomas (F), Satou Sabally (F), Natasha Mack (C), Kahleah Copper (G), Monique Akoa Makani (G)<\/p><p><strong>Key Bench Players:<\/strong> Kathryn Westbeld, Kalani Brown<\/p><p><strong>Injuries<\/strong>: None.

They maintain a higher offensive rating than Mercury at 105.8 and a defensive rating of 100.6. The Liberty went inconsistent during their campaign and while spending most of the season in top two, they slid down the standings and ended up in the fifth spot.&nbsp;<\/p><p>New York showed their potential earlier in the season, but injuries to players such as Jonquel Jones, Breanna Stewart, Natasha Cloud, Sabrina Ionescu, and more, pushed them back. Let&rsquo;s go through a few stats about them:&nbsp;<\/p><ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The last week of the regular season was the first time since late May that the defending champions have had full squad available.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>They head into the playoffs with their starters having played 12 games together.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>All five of New York&rsquo;s starters have won at least one WNBA title.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">New York Liberty Expected Lineup&nbsp;<\/h3><p>Breanna Stewart (F), Leonie Fiebich (F), Jonquel Jones (C ), Natasha Cloud (G), Sabrina Ionescu (G)&nbsp;<\/p><p><strong>Key Bench Players: <\/strong>Kennedy Burke, Marine Johanes, Nyara Sabally<\/p><p><strong>Injuries<\/strong>: The reigning champions have a clean injury report for the upcoming game.&nbsp;<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Phoenix Mercury vs New York Liberty Total Over\/Under Prediction- WNBA Best Bets&nbsp;<\/h2><p>Phoenix has a solid offense but they have also struggled as seen in their 66-point outing to Minnesota in July 2025. The New York Liberty have averaged 84.4 points while Mercury have averaged 82.8 points per game. Both teams have struggled on the road, but still Phoenix holds an upper hand with a 12-10 record as compared to New York&rsquo;s 10-12.&nbsp;<\/p><p>In all four of their clashes in the 2025 regular season, both teams have mostly scored around and over 80+. However, there was only once incident where the Mercury crossed the 100+ point mark while the Liberty finished near 90. Their last meeting in Phoenix totaled 143, I expect a tight defensive battle between the Mercury and Liberty on Sunday.&nbsp;<\/p><p><strong>&nbsp;Total: <a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/go-betmgm-sportsbetting-us-en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>Under 164.5 for -105 at BetMGM&nbsp;<\/a><\/strong><\/p><p>Here is an overview of my selections&nbsp;<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td>Picks&nbsp;<\/td><td>BetMGM Odds&nbsp;<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Total U 164.5<\/td><td>-105<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Spread: Liberty -1.5<\/td><td>-115<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Breanna Stewart O 18.5 Points&nbsp;<\/td><td>-125<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Money Line-Liberty&nbsp;<\/td><td>-130&nbsp;<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Phoenix Mercury vs New York Liberty Player Props Predictions- WNBA Betting Picks&nbsp;<\/h2><p><strong>Breanna Stewart O 18.5 Points- <\/strong>Breanna Stewart is among the top ten scorers in the league right now.
