The Las Vegas Aces visit the Minnesota Lynx at Target Center on Wednesday as we offer our best Aces vs. Lynx prediction and expert picks based on the best WNBA odds.

The Las Vegas Aces (3-1) rebounded from their first loss of the season with a dominant victory over the Indiana Fever on Saturday. Next, they will take on the Minnesota Lynx (4-1) at Target Center on Wednesday, with the game tipping off at 8 p.m. ET on NBA TV. The Aces are favored by 6 points.

A'ja Wilson, the front-runner in the WNBA MVP odds, was unstoppable in the win against the Fever, amassing 29 points and 15 rebounds. Her stellar performance has kept the Aces firmly in the WNBA championship odds race.

Meanwhile, the Lynx have been on a hot streak. They dismantled the New York Liberty and followed that with a convincing 13-point win over the Atlanta Dream on Sunday, propelling them to the top of the Western Conference standings.

Here are our best Aces vs. Lynx predictions (odds via our best sports betting sites; Pick confidence is based on a 1-to-5-star scale).

Aces vs. Lynx predictions for Wednesday

Lynx +6.5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐

After slogging through a 2-1 start against middling teams in my WNBA power rankings, Las Vegas bounced back with its first double-digit margin victory of the season against the Fever, who are the league's worst team in most advanced metrics.

As we laid out in our Fever vs. Aces prediction, the Aces benefitted from a massive rest advantage in that one against a tired Indiana club playing on the second night of a back-to-back set. Las Vegas was also playing in its fourth consecutive home game in an odd WNBA scheduling quirk.

Now it hits the road for the first time all season to face a Lynx group that leads the WNBA in net rating (+11.6) after blowing out the Liberty and Dream over the weekend.

Minnesota is a force with Napheesa Collier playing at an MVP level, especially at home. I'll gladly take these outlier odds from bet365 with this line as short as +5.5 elsewhere.

Over 171.5 ⭐⭐⭐

This is another outlier number, this time from FanDuel, in a game featuring the WNBA's two highest-scoring offenses.

While the Aces' defense appears stuck in preseason mode, their offense is in full gear, leading the league in points per game (91.3) and offensive rating (109.9) with at least 88 points in all four contests thus far. We've seen similar production from the Lynx, who rank second in PPG (88.6) after scoring 92 points on Sunday.

With this total dealing as high as 172.5 through DraftKings, this lower number at FanDuel compels me ahead of a surely high-scoring affair.
