Teams Preview

France

France are back to winning track after defeating Hungary 74-71 on Friday. The French side made a winning start to the qualifying campaign but lost to Finland in the next game. With a 2-1 record in the group, France are eyeing a next round qualification with a win at home. France suffered a defeat in the round of 16 at the 2025 EuroBasket. Sylvain Francisco hit a match-winning basket with two seconds left after a game-tying shot from Maronka. 

France shot 65% from the floor and 53% from the three-point line. They edged out the opposition 34-24 in the rebounding battle. The hosts on Sunday rank sixth in allowing less points to opponents (72.3). They are scoring 76.3 points per game in the European qualifiers while shooting 46.3% from the floor and 35.1% from threes. France rank 10th in the offensive rebounds (11.7). They still look for improvement in the qualifiers. 

Amine Noua led the scoring in the last game with 15 points. In-form Matthew Strazel was not playing in this fixture. Amath M’Baye added 13 points, while Benjamin Sene contributed 12 points off the bench. Sylvain Francisco added 10 points, including a match-winning three-pointer. If we talk about the offensive threat, Amine Noua comes first in our mind. He averaged 16.9 points in the GBL and scored in double-digit in 12 out of the last 12 games. We back him to score 15 or more points in the home fixture. 

Hungary

Hungary snapped a two-game winning streak in the European qualifiers on Friday with a 71-74 loss to France. A three-pointer before the buzzer denied Hungary a chance of forcing an overtime. They previously beat Finland and Belgium in the group stage. They are still at the top of Group G. Three teams will reach the next round of this group and Belgium’s three successive losses assured an easy next-round qualification for Hungary. 

In the previous game, they shot 65% from the floor and 53% from the three-point line, similar to France. The clutch performance made a difference in the game. Hungary lost the rebounding battle 24-34 and out-assisted the opposition 15-13. The visitors are scoring 81.1 points on average while shooting 45.4% from the floor. They rank seventh in the free throw percentage (78.6%) and tenth in the 3-point shooting (37.1%) 

Only two players reached double figures for Hungary. Zoltan Perl was the top scorer in the game with 21 points. Zsombar Maronka dropped 17 points, including a game-tying three-pointer in the final minute. Defensively, Hungary recorded ten steals and two blocks. When it comes to finding an offensive threat from Hungary, Zoltan Perl is right up there. The guard averaged 14.7 points in qualifiers and 18.8 points in Hungary NB. We back Perl to score 18 or more points in the upcoming fixture.
