Ukraine - Georgia

The Finnish national team, which has united its composition, appears as a clear favorite in the matchup against Hungary. In the qualifiers without leader Markkanen, the Finns may have been vulnerable, but now that he can play, their team's capabilities are at a completely different level. Jantunen and other solid Finns should dominate at home, as this team plays very well on their home court. Hungary may struggle to compete away from home and during the summer, as they do not have any NBA or real Euroleague players, so the Finns at home should have no problem, especially considering that every point is crucial in the fight for a spot in the World Championship.

The Finnish team's attacking capabilities were demonstrated at last year's European championship, where they reached 4th place and were one of the most successful teams in the tournament. With Markannen and other solid Finnish basketball players leading the way and playing at home against a weaker Hungarian team, we can expect our home team to score many points and secure a victory.

The plus size lottery seems quite strange to me, is Markanenas playing? Okay, don't forget to play, it's important that after an injury a man doesn't play for 5 months, plus the situation is unclear and the treatment is also important, everything is okay, but there is a risk in tricky situations, although I understand that in case of defeat, the Finns can even get knocked down to third place, if things go badly. I don't believe in Hungarians, but such a big plus size I would believe. Yesterday it was 13.5, today it could go up to 20.5, Markanenas could change the beat with 7 points, I wouldn't expect that. It seems to be a massive hysteria, just hearing his name and the Finn's negative attitude, but it's unclear how long he will get. I am trying to respond positively to this massive hysteria and trust the Hungarians.

Almost all Finns gathered, but friendly circles and everyone is already pulling out of long vacations, it will be saturated, the place must be for the next stage, and Peru can also take a walk here. Hungarians, on the other hand, probably forced along with the changes, brought in many younger ones, next to the usual veterans. They lack quality, a difficult attack is foreseen, as there are many hurdles, they will try to direct their energy towards defense. I am expecting a poor game.

The lineup is very renewed, lacking talent terribly, so against the Finns, there should be a thread to pull and they would be weak. The Finns will lock them with their vibes, there are no handicaps on the Hungarian side in any position. Peru is the only one who can overcome higher levels.
