The scenario for Great Britain is simple, loose and the plane home all but beckons. However, the match is not without pressure for one of the tournament’s favourites as Serbia need to get back to winning ways after a shock defeat to Russia. The tie is nicely set up in a must win encounter for both sides.
Key Players to Watch
Gabe Olaseni has been the only real shining light in the GB ranks in a so far disappointing tournament. The 6ft 11in giant has the highest points per game in 19.7 and most rebounds with 11.3 and the Brits need him to be on form. By contrast, Serbia’s Bogdan Bogdanovic has a far superior point per game ratio of 24.5 and will no doubt cause the British defence a few headaches.
Both Teams Recent Form
Three matches and three defeats have been the extent of GB’s tournament so far. Defeats to Latvia, Turkey and Belgium looks like sending the Brits home for an early bath. Serbia are one of the favourites for the tournament but suffered a surprise defeat to Russia last time out. Check out our best basketball betting tips below to see how the Serbs will likely get back to winning ways.
Great Britain vs Serbia Head-to-Head
The only previous meeting between the two in the European Championships occurred in 2009. It was Serbia who ran out comfortable winners that day in 77 points to 59 win in Poland. A repeat of that will go a long way to ensuring passage to the knockout stages for Serbia.
Great Britain vs Serbia Prediction
Serbia have the edge on Great Britain all across the court and anything other than a Serbia win will prove quite the shock. The team almost snatched victory at the death against Latvia but there is unlikely to be any repeat against the much stronger Serbia side. Unfortunately for the Brits, it is going to be time out.
Great Britain vs Serbia Betting Tips
When placing a bet on basketball games, Great Britain has a host of opportunities. Whereas Serbia to win at 1/18 with Unibet will not make you rich anytime soon, Serbia to win with a -16.5 handicap at 10/11 with Unibet does offer value. The Serbs are notoriously quick out of the blocks as well, so get on Serbia to win the race to 10 points with Betway at 1/4.
