Teams Preview

Sweden

Sweden head into the contest with a 94-83 loss against Slovenia in the 2027 FIBA World Cup European Qualifiers. They dropped both of their games in the qualifying round. They are the only team in Group H to not win a single game yet. Sweden can still qualify for the next round as three teams will play the next round. They made into the round of 16 in the EuroBasket last year. 

Sweden were shooting 51% from the floor and 45% from the three-point line. They rank fifth in the field goal percentage and third in the three-point shooting. Despite great offensive numbers, Sweden are winless in the qualifying round. Defence has been a concern for Sweden as they allowed 95.5 points on average. They are also averaging 18 turnovers per game in the qualifiers. 

Ludde Hakanson was the top scorer in the last game with a season-high 34 points, including seven three-pointers. Pierre Hampton went for 16 points and Lundqvist chipped in with 14 points. Hakanson could be an offensive threat in the upcoming fixture. The Badalona guard also scored a double-double in Sweden’s first game. He averaged 24.5 points in the world cup qualifying. We back Hakanson to drop 25 points in the upcoming fixture against Estonia. 

Estonia

Estonia are back to the 2027 FIBA World Cup qualifiers with a two-game set against Sweden. After beating Slovenia in the opener, Estonia lost to the Czech Republic 92-97 in the second game. With three teams to reach the next round, Estonia would be optimistic to take the advantage in upcoming two games. They won just one game in last year’s EuroBasket group stage. It won’t be an easy outing for them. 

Estonia would give Sweden a tough fight in offensive strength as they averaged 93 PPG in the qualifiers. However, they allowed 95 points on average. With 46.5% shooting from the floor, they rank seventh in field goals. Estonia were shooting 58% from the floor and 46% from the three-point line.  

Three players recorded double figures for Estonia. Kaspar Treier was the top performer with 26 points off the bench. Artur Konontsuk went for 20 points, while Markus Liver chipped in with 11 points. Joesaar also contributed nine points. Konontsuk could be an offensive threat considering his form. He averaged 16.5 PPG in WC qualifiers and 9.9 PPG in the Turkish league. We back him to score at least 15 points in the upcoming fixture.
