New York Liberty and Connecticut Sun head-to-head record

The New York Liberty and the Connecticut Sun’s recent head-to-head record demonstrates a back-and-forth contest in which both teams have secured significant victories. 

New York have demonstrated their offensive potency by winning two of the last five games, including a resounding 100-52 triumph on June 2, 2025, and their most recent victory of 87-78 on August 3, 2025.

However, the Sun have shown they can fight back, as evidenced by their resounding 94-86 triumph earlier in May and their 78-62 victory the day before on August 2, 2025.

Given this pattern, the Liberty have the advantage due to their attacking effectiveness, but the Sun’s capacity to win close games indicates that this contest may still be very close and determined by performance in crucial areas.
