Who will win Sparks vs. Fever? Predictions, odds for Caitlin Clark's eighth game as a pro

Four days after Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever took down Cameron Brink and the Los Angeles Sparks on the road for their first win of the season, the two teams are set to face off once again.

This time, the Fever will play host to the Sparks as they look for their second win and first at home in what has been an underwhelming start to the 2024 season. Though they don't play the same positions, all eyes will be on the rookies – Clark and Brink – once again in the second meeting between the first and second overall picks of this year's WNBA draft.

Seven games into her pro career, Clark is averaging 15.4 points, 5.4 rebounds and 6.3 assists per game. Her marks in points and assists both lead the team, as does her 1.1 steals per game average.

Brink has played five games so far, and she's averaging 10.8 points, 5.8 rebounds and 2.4 assists per game this season. In the small sample size, she also leads the WNBA with an average of 3.2 blocks per game.

Here's what to know about Tuesday night's WNBA clash.

Caitlin Clark celebrates with Indiana Fever teammate Katie Lou Samuelson during a 99-80 loss to the Las Vegas Aces on May 25.
