As part of the 4th round of the group stage of the OI-2020, Montenegro will face off with Kazakhstan. Will Kazakhstan be able to score the first points?
Montenegro
The Montenegrin national team started at the 2020 Olympic Games with a victory over Australia with a score of 15-10, and then suffered two defeats, as a result of which it fell to fourth place and had to win the final games to be guaranteed to reach the playoffs. If the defeat from Spain can still be understood, after all, the Spaniards are one of the favorites and rightfully lead Group B, then the loss from Croatia (8-13) raised questions.
Kazakhstan
There is nothing left but for Kazakhstan to win, the only difference is that it is in a more unpleasant and dangerous position-it closes the group without having scored points. The 2020 Olympic Games began for Kazakhstan with a major defeat against Croatia (7-23), and continued with two more negative results: 5-19 from Serbia and 4-16 from Spain.
Statistics and figures:
- Montenegro lost in the previous two matches;
- Kazakhstan has lost in the last four matches;
- Montenegro won against Kazakhstan in four extreme battles.
Forecast
Both teams rarely win, but Montenegro performs better, which is stronger both as a team and individually, and should not face difficulties.
