Czechia - Slovenia

The Croatians are striving to return to the elite and with a very solid starting five at home, they have already defeated the German national team, which lacks strong NBA and Euroleague basketball players. Šaric and Hezonja alone can win against such a German team, and Smith and other interesting Croatians have a lot of potential. The odds are high and the chances are very good, so taking everything into account, it seems like a good bet.

With a very poor accuracy, especially from the 3-point zone, this team still managed to beat Sweden with such a high score. Now, they are playing against Estonia, where they can once again hope for some points. The team is good at running and shooting a lot of points, as well as making many 3-point shots. 55 3-point shots were made by both teams, and if the team can perform even better, this line will be easily achieved with the wind on their side.

The French strength is not huge and they have already lost to Finland away and only narrowly defeated Hungary a couple of days ago. In the previous round, the French won at home with a 16-point handicap against Belgium, who lost all their group matches played so far. Therefore, I believe that the Hungarians must fight and not lose by such a margin.

The first competition was very intense and the Estonians gained a lead of only 4 points. The Swedes have not yet faced Peru in this qualifying round, but they have a very interesting lineup and are capable of competing against any team. I believe that the Estonians will cover the handicap in this away game.

The pace between these teams was good in the first game, but it was all ruined by the checks' game, which looked tragic. Only 59 points with a 30% accuracy rate and 25% from 3-point range. But even with those stats, in the second half the total reached around 170. Today, I hope for better quality from the checks, there are no Slovenians with strong defensive teams, both teams are good at scoring and have weak defenses.
