Basketball players of the Czech Republic and Uruguay national teams will meet in one of the qualification matches at the OI in Tokyo. Which of the rivals will get the victory in this confrontation? Our sports portal gives a forecast for this match.
Czech
The Czech squad plays in the same group with Turkey and Uruguay. It is worth noting that the team of "tricolor" in its first match lost to the Turkish squad with a score of 70: 87, showing far from perfect basketball. After the first round, the Czech Republic is in last place in its trio, having a chance of getting into the playoffs. To do this, the Czechs need to win in a face-to-face meeting with today's opponent, who was initially considered an outsider of the group.
Uruguay
The national team of Uruguay has also held one meeting at the moment as part of the qualification for the Olympic Games in Japan. It is worth noting that the Uruguayans lost this game to Turkey (86: 95), showing solid basketball in attack, but a very weak game in defense. Whatever it was, but in the meeting with the Czech Republic, Uruguay is not considered a favorite, and many predict the defeat of the nominal guests and also the end of the team's struggle for a ticket to the Olympics.
Statistics and figures:
- The Czech Republic is a clear favorite of the game;
- The Czech team has lost three times in the last 5 games;
- Uruguay has 3 wins in 5 matches;
- The rivals have never played each other in their rich basketball history.
Forecast
Although the Czech Republic is the favorite of the game, but to win against an opponent with a difference of 10 points is still a task. In the match against Turkey, the Uruguayans showed their true strength and put up a decent resistance to their opponent. In the match with the Czech Republic, Uruguay has a double motivation.
