Teams Preview

Romania

Romania head into the contest with a 56-88 loss against Slovakia. The hosts suffered two consecutive defeats in the FIBA European qualifiers. They made a winning start by beating Cyprus 75-62 in the opener. Now, they are back against the same opponent to find the winning momentum. With two defeats in their pocket, Romania needs a breakthrough victory to get back to the contention for playoffs. Only two teams will cross the line from this group. 

The hosts were shooting 32% from the floor and 24% from the three-point line. They out-rebounded the opposition 34-33 and were out-assisted 11-22. Defensively, they recorded eight steals and one block. Romania have allowed less than 30% from three in the qualifying campaign. However, they struggled a bit in offense with just 57.2 PPG. They are forcing more than 15 turnovers per game in the season, including season-high 27 in the last game. 

Only two players reached double figures in previous defeat. Katy Armanu was the top performer with 13 points and five rebounds. Teodora Manea added 10 points and five rebounds. Virjoghe dropped 10 rebounds, while Orban and AM Bobar had nine points each. Armanu could also be an offensive threat in the upcoming fixture. She averaged 11.6 points in the EuroBasket qualifiers. We back Katy to score 15 or more points in the home fixture against Cyprus. 

Cyprus

Cyprus are such a terrible side considering their form in FIBA competitions. The visitors arrived in the fourth game of the FIBA World Cup qualifiers with three straight victories. Cyprus lost to Poland 52-96 in the previous game. Following a 44-point blowout loss, Cyprus are almost out of the qualification round. They will be taking on Romania next in the do-die contest. Meanwhile, they dropped their first game against Romania 62-75. 

Cyprus didn’t score more than 18 points in a single quarter. The visitors conceded a game-high 46-point lead and never trailed. Cyprus were shooting 30% from the floor and 47% from the three-point line. Defensively, they recorded 10 steals but also forced 14 turnovers. Cyprus averaged 57.6 points and allowed 80.3 points per game in the qualifying games. They are committing 14 turnovers per game. 

Eleni Pilakouta was top performer against Poland with 17 points and five rebounds. Ioanna Kyprianou went for 12 points, while Stilyana Chenaklieva dropped nine points. Pilakouta could be an offensive threat in the upcoming fixture. He has been a consistent player in the Serie A2, averaging 12.8 points per game. He went into single digit seven times out of the last eight games. We back Pilakouta to be a top-scorer with 15 points in the road contest.
