Estonia made an impressive start to the 2027 FIBA World Cup qualifiers. They are coming off a 88-77 victory over Sweden. Estonia moved to second in the group table. After beating Slovenia in the opener, Estonia lost to the Czech Republic in the second game. With three teams to reach the next round, Estonia requires one more win to clinch the next round ticket. Meanwhile, they won just one game in last year’s EuroBasket group stage. They are back home now to take on the Swedish side again.
The hosts are ready to give Sweden a tough fight in offensive strength, averaging 91.3 points per game in the qualifiers. However, they allowed 89 points on average which improved through last game. With 47% shooting from the floor, they rank fourth in field goals. Estonia were shooting 96% from the floor and 100% from the three-point line against Sweden. It was their best shooting ever in European qualifiers.
Four players recorded double figures for Estonia. Henri Drell was the top scorer in the last game with 23 points. Kristian Kullamae and Kaspar Treier added 13 points each. Janari Joesaar also contributed 10 points and five rebounds. Konontsuk managed nine but he could be an offensive threat in home fixtures. He averaged 14 PPG in World Cup qualifiers and 9.9 PPG in the Turkish league. We back him to score at least 15 points in the upcoming fixture.
Slovenia are back to winning form after losing to Estonia in the campaign opener. They beat Sweden and Czech Republic in successive games to reach top spot in the table. Slovenia thrashed Czech 99-59 at home court and stepped up for the next round qualification in the 2027 FIBA World Cup European Qualifiers. Three teams will qualify from Group H and Slovenia are expected to cross the line first.
Slovenia were shooting 48% from the floor and 43% from the three-point line. They out-rebounded the opposition 40-36. They had the biggest lead of 43 points and never trailed in the game. Slovenia are leading in the scoring average (95.3) across European teams in the qualifiers. They rank fifth in steals per game (8.7). Slovenia allowed 78.7 points in the European qualifiers which is less than the EuroBasket. The blowout victory against Czech gave them a huge confidence.
In the previous game, only three players reached double figures including one from the bench. Ziga Samar again led the scoring with 19 points, while Gregor Hrovat went for 17 points. Joksimovic chipped in with 15 points and six rebounds off the bench. Hrovat could be an offensive threat with his previous performances. The JDA Dijon guard averaged 16.4 points in France Pro A and scored 17 or more points eight times in the last 13 games. We back Hrovat to drop 20 or more points in this fixture.
