Turkey - Lithuania

We have all seen the lineup and game of the Lithuanian national team, which did not bring any positive emotions and does not give us any chance of defeating the Turks. Despite the fact that the Turks who have won all qualifying matches will not have Sengun, realistically all other players are European vice-champions, and at home they must deal calmly with such a Lithuanian lineup and coaching staff. Just a year ago, the Turks even lost to Lithuania, when the Lithuanian lineup was much stronger. In the European championship, as well as in the World Cup qualifying round, it is very common for the Turks to have a double-digit handicap, so it is difficult to expect a different result, even when the ball is round.

Winner (+OT) and both teams score over 70 points - Turkey and Yes 70

Considering Turkey is the favorite and should beat the Lithuanian team, I think it is clear. As for points, I believe we can expect both teams to score over 70 points in this game. The Lithuanian team has not excelled in defense even with better line-ups, and now with these strategists and their tactics, they consistently allow a high number of points. Turkey also consistently allows a high number of points, so both teams must aim for this point margin, and the favorite status is quite clear seeing the teams' capabilities.

In the past season, with very low numbers, A. Marčiulionis gathered the Estonian national team in the Eastern Champions League, and they did not exceed the same line in the friendly matches, even though Lithuania scored 108 points. Augustas is not a scorer and in such pressure, he may get lost, and the leaders of this team are completely different. It will be very difficult for Turkey to reach such a total against a player from BC Rytas, who does it very rarely.
