The New York Liberty are starting to mesh with their new-look roster, winning back-to-back games to pull within one game of the Connecticut Sun for the top spot in the Eastern Conference.

The Liberty will host the Atlanta Dream in a WNBA Commissioner's Cup matchup on Tuesday night, the second time these teams have faced off this season. New York won the first meeting – on the road – by 23 points.

Atlanta is a talented team, led by Rhyne Howard and Allisha Gray, but it sits at just 2-5 on the season after losing to the Sun in its last game.

Let's break down the odds and a best bet for this matchup:

Dream vs. Liberty odds, spread and total

Dream vs. Liberty prediction and pick

This is yet another game where New York finds itself as a double-digit favorite, and the Liberty have won three of their six wins by double figures and five of them by at least eight points.

Breanna Stewart and Sabrina Ionescu are both playing well right now, with Stewie shooting over 54.0 percent from the field on the season.

I'd prefer to lay the points with a New York team that is No. 2 in offensive rating, No. 1 in 3-point percentage and No. 4 in defensive rating than trust this struggling Dream team.

Atlanta is just eighth in offensive rating and ninth in defensive rating while playing at the No. 2 pace in the WNBA. If it's going to be inefficient, Atlanta is going to struggle to keep up with this Liberty squad.

New York has dominated at home, winning by 17, 16 and nine in its three home wins.

I'll lay the points in this spot with the Liberty starting to gel.

Game odds refresh periodically and are subject to change.
