Teams Preview

Czechia

Czech Republic enter this contest after a disappointing FIBA Women's EuroBasket where they won three and lost three matches. Three wins came against Lithuania (76-81), Portugal (52-73) and Montenegro (89-44) all against lower ranked teams. 

Whenever Czechia plays against lower ranked teams they scored over 72 points in four of the last five matches. On the offensive end  Eliska Hamzova (9.5 points per game) is one of the key scorers and facilitators. 

Czech Republic likes to play a heavy lineup with centers Emma Cechova (9.8 PPG, 6.3 RPG) and Julia Resingerova who was one of the top scorers in the last pre qualifying tournaments in 2024 where she averaged 13 points, 5 rebounds and 2 assists per game. 

South Sudan

South Sudan had a mixed run in the FIBA Women's Afro Basket where they lost their first two matches but bounced back against Egypt with a 75-65 win and then in the quarterfinals they edged past Uganda 69-68. In the semi finals they were thrashed by Mali Women 50-76. 

South Sudan Women doesn't have a strong offensive set up where they averaged 62.7 points per game, but their defense is more stabilised as they conceded 66.5 points per game. They usually score most of their points inside the paint attacking the rim and scoring more two pointers than three pointers. 

In the last 10 matches, South Sudan Women are averaging 67 points per game and matches involving them have seen in total scores surpass over the 130 mark. They are slow starters where they usually give up early momentum to their opponents as seen in recent matches where they lost the first quarter in five of the last six outings.
