Norway will be hosting Armenia for the third fixture in the pre-qualifying event of FIBA EuroBasket. They head into the home matchup with a 76-67 defeat to Bulgaria. They kicked off the campaign with a clinical victory over Armenia. They take the top spot in the respective group and one game left with Bulgaria, they can fancy their chances for the next round qualification.
Norway also lost all four qualifying games in the FIBA World Cup qualifiers. They defeated Armenia 74-62 in the opening game. With one more victory, they will assure their chances to crack the top spot. They were shooting 42.6% from the floor and 36.9% from the three-point line. They are scoring 75 points and allowing 64.5 points per game in pre-qualifiers.
Norway ranks sixth in the field goals percentage (42.6%) and third in offensive rebounds (5.5). Chris Ebou Ndow led the scoring with 27 points, while Stian Mjos added 17 points. Milovan Savic contributed ten points. He could also be an offensive threat in the upcoming fixture. Savic averaged 10.5 in in pre-qualifiers. We back him to score 15 or more points in the upcoming fixture.
Armenia head in to the contest with a 62-74 defeat to Norway in the Group B of the FIBA EuroBasket Pre-Qualifiers. The hosts were outscored 11-25 in the final quarter and suffered the second defeat in the pre-qualifiers. Armenia will play two more games in the group stage and they have to win the remaining two. Despite this, they needed favours from the other two teams. Armenia didn’t qualify for last year’s EuroBasket and had a similar story in the World Cup qualifiers.
The dream of playing in the 2029 EuroBasket is slightly over for Armenia. The hosts had previously lost to Bulgaria in the campaign opener so the pressure will remain on Armenia. They were shooting 28% from the floor and 23% from the three-point line. The hosts won the rebounding battle 59-45 but were out-assisted 8-23. Armenia leads in the rebounds (49). They are averaging 75 PPG in EuroBasket pre-qualifiers and 86.5 PPG in World Cup European qualifiers.
Andre Spight led all the scorers with 30 points and seven rebounds on 11-for-25 shooting. Yura Melikyan contributed a double-double with 12 points and 18 rebounds, while Christian Vital also added 12 points. Spight could be an offensive threat in this fixture. He has averaged 33.5 PPG in pre-qualifiers and 23.7 in Uruguay LUB. We are backing him to score 25 or more points in the home fixture.
