Latvia

Latvia are heading to the home contest in the 2027 FIBA World Cup qualifiers with a dominating 86-67 victory against Austria. The hosts dropped the campaign opener against Netherlands. They faced a round of 16 exit against Lithuania in the 2025 EuroBasket. Latvia may cross the line in the qualifying round as three teams will qualify for the next round in Group F. 

Latvia were shooting 45% from the floor and 40% from the three-point line. They were out-rebounded 33-34 but out-assisted 20-11. Defensively, they recorded 11 steals and four blocks. Latvia have allowed just 27.5% from three in the qualifying campaign. They averaged 82.0 points and allowed 77 points per game in the qualifying event. The hosts have been a strong unit in defense, averaging 3.5 blocks and 10.5 steals per game. 

Rihards Lomazs led the scoring with 24 points and Karlis Silins dropped 17 points and five rebounds. Steinbergs went for 10 points. Lomazs could be an offensive threat in the upcoming fixture. The guard scored 27 and 17 points respectively in the last two games. He has gone for 19 points and more in five of the last eight games. We back Lomazs to score a double-double in the home fixture against Poland. 

Poland

Poland are high on confidence after a 85-83 victory against the Netherlands. The Polish side pulled off a great comeback in the final quarter where they outscored the Dutch 27-13. They were trailing 58-70 after three quarters. Poland have won their first two games in the 2027 FIBA World Cup qualifiers. They had a quarterfinal run in the EuroBasket last year and lost to Turkey. The Polish national side will take on Latvia next. 

Three teams will qualify from Poland’s group and one more victory can assure their qualification. The visitors overcame a 21-point deficit to defeat the  Netherlands. It shows their comeback ability. Poland were shooting 45% from the floor and 26% from the three-point range. They averaged 87.5 points in the qualifying round and allowed 80.5 points per game. With a 23.5% shooting, they are slightly a poor unit in three-point line. 

Mateusz Ponitka was the top performer with 22 points and nine rebounds. Jerrick Harding went for 17 points and five rebounds. Sokolowski chipped in with 12 points. Poland out-rebounded the Dutch 35-27. Harding could be an offensive threat in this fixture, due to his consistent performance.
