Head-to-head statistics Chicago Sky (W) - Seattle Storm (W)
Chicago Sky (W) Team Overview
Chicago’s form remains inconsistent: over their last 10 games, the team have managed just three wins against seven defeats, with their most recent outing ending in another setback against Dallas. This season, Chicago are putting up impressive offensive numbers averaging 86.7 points per game but are conceding 90.3 on average, highlighting their focus on attacking basketball while leaving significant gaps at the defensive end.
In recent matchups, the pace has only intensified: Chicago are now averaging 91.9 points per game, but their opponents are just as aggressive, scoring an average of 92.2 points against them. This trend points to a fast-paced style with frequent end-to-end action and limited control of the tempo from the Sky. Their main vulnerability continues to be a lack of reliability under their own basket, leading to high numbers conceded even against teams with modest offensive potential.
Match Results: Chicago Sky (W)
Seattle Storm (W) Team Overview
Seattle are also struggling, with just three wins and seven defeats in their last ten outings, the latest setback coming recently against Washington (79-84). The Storm’s season scoring average is notably lower than Chicago’s, just 80.26 points per game, despite a relatively high defensive intensity: opponents are putting up an average of 84.7 points against them. Over their most recent stretch, Seattle have shown a slight uptick offensively, averaging 85.4 points, but their defensive woes persist, conceding 88.1 per contest.
The team rarely push the tempo, consistently posting below-average offensive numbers compared to the rest of the league. Things look especially grim for Seattle on the road, where they have dropped 11 of 12 games. If this trend continues, climbing out of the basement of the Western Conference will be out of reach.

⭐ Editor’s Prediction
While the hosts come into this clash as clear favourites, we believe Seattle have a solid chance to keep things competitive. They looked impressive in their recent road outing against a strong Washington side, and Chicago arguably lack that same level of quality. Head-to-head meetings in Chicago have also been tight affairs, with eight of the last nine games decided by narrow margins. One of the league’s weakest defences could prove costly for the Sky. We’re backing the visitors to cover the +4.5 spread.
