Teams Preview

Norway

Norway are having a disastrous campaign in the FIBA EuroBasket qualifiers with three defeats out of three. They head into the contest with a 48-91 defeat against Great Britain. Norway didn’t concede more than 16 points in each quarter. They conceded the biggest lead of 49 points. With a blowout defeat, Norway slipped to bottom in the group table. They will be taking on Austria again. 

Norway shot 34% from the floor and 36% from the three-point line. They committed a season-high 27 turnovers in the game. The hosts would eye a comeback win. Norway are scoring just 43 points per game which is lowest by any team in the qualifiers. Defensively, they had six steals. Norway’s defense is also poor like their offense as they allowed 75 points per game. 

Stine Austgulen was the top scorer with 18 points, while Maria Myklebust dropped nine points. Only one player reached double figures for Norway. Austgulen could also be an offensive threat in the upcoming fixture. She averaged 11 points in the EuroBasket Qualifiers. We back her to score 10 or more points in the home fixture. 

Austria

Austria made an impressive start to the EuroBasket qualifiers campaign with three clinical victories. They are the unbeaten side in Group D. Austria have been a poor unit so far in Group A with three defeats out of a strong unit so far. The visitors outplayed Switzerland 97-78 in the previous game to extend their winning streak to three matches. Previously, they overcame Norway and Great Britain respectively. 

Austria will face Norway for the second time in the competition after beating them 63-48. The visitors shot 53% from the floor and 39% from the three-point line. They out-rebounded the opposition 42-30 and out-assisted 25-24. Austria have been a strong offensive unit, averaging 81.6 points per game. They allowed 69 points per game in the qualifying round. 

Four players reached double figures against  Switzerland. Alexia Allesch was the top scorer with 26 points and 15 rebounds. Sarah Sagerer went for 23 points. Anja Fuchs-Robetin chipped in with 12 points and five rebounds, while Simone Sill dropped ten points. Sarah Sagerer could be an offensive threat in this game. She has been a consistent player for Austria, averaging 18.3 points in qualifiers. She has two 20-point outbursts. We back him to be a top-scorer with 20 or more points in the road contest.
