Portland Fire vs. Chicago Sky Prediction
I’m on Portland here. This is a very quick revenge spot for the Fire after being blown out by the Sky in their last game and with the way that game went, I have to think that the Fire would love to exact some revenge here. Chicago’s been far less efficient than normal this season and I don’t trust them to sustain those results in back-to-back outings. give me Portland in this one.
