Match Predict – Handicap (-2) for Croatia
Ukraine has already proved that they have no authority. After beating Italy, they created a lot of problems for the Greeks. Given the crisis in the Croatian game, we doubt that Mulaomerovic’s side will win by a big handicap.
Total Points – Over 157
The Ukrainians are performing well in the tournament. Bagatskis’ side has an interesting and efficient game. Only against Estonia, did they fail to score 80 points. In all other contests, they scored more.
The Croats also have an excellent attacking line-up. Bojan Bogdanovic and Dario Šarić cut open the opponent’s defensive lines with ease.
Preliminary review and match prediction for Croatia vs Ukraine
Croatia:
After four games played, Croatia have two wins and the same number of defeats. Mulaomerović’s side has beaten only group underdogs Great Britain and Estonia. Against stronger opponents, they failed to achieve anything. Given the fact that Croatia has several players from the NBA, their record could be called a failure.
Croatia, however, can make up for it. If Mulaomerovic’s side beat Ukraine, they could finish second in Group C.
Croatia has won their last five head-to-head matches against Ukraine.
In the last game against Italy, Bojan Bogdanovic scored 27 points, 5 rebounds and 3 assists.
