The Chicago Sky still have hopes of grabbing a final WNBA Playoff spot but have a tough task on Friday. They'll visit the Connecticut Sun, the league's third-best team at 20-10 on the season. The Sky will need this win and losses by Seattle and possibly Dallas to get closer to grabbing a spot in the postseason. Here's the latest WNBA game preview including a match up details, odds, game time, channel and live streaming options.

Game Preview

In the current WNBA standings, five teams have already clinched playoff spots with three spots still available.

The Phoenix Mercury (15-16) seem to be a near lock, while Seattle and Dallas each have 14-17 records. With their 11-18 record, the Chicago Sky have work to do and will want to start picking up wins. They're on a two-game losing streak and have gone 5-5 over their last ten games. Tonight they'll get a tough road test at Mohegan Sun Arena.

The Connecticut Sun have been one of the big stories out of the Eastern Conference this season. The team came out of the gates slow but has risen to become the third-best team in the league, record-wise. The New York Liberty and Washington Mystics are both still a few games behind the Sun for that third spot, so Connecticut will want to keep their distance. In addition, with three games left, the Sun are hoping to put together a win streak and that the L.A.

Sparks drop several games. That could mean Connecticut takes over the No. 2 spot heading into the playoffs.

The home team is a nine-point favorite on tonight's spread. Connecticut is also listed at -500 on several sportsbooks, with the visiting Sky at +375. For the over/under, bettors are looking at 173 points for the complete game tonight.

The Sun are 6-4 over these two teams' last ten meetings which includes a recent 93-72 win in Connecticut back on July 25th.
