Lassi Tuovi's team won 2 matches out of 4, thus securing their way into the playoffs. First, the Finns lost in overtime to the Israeli team, 87-89 (79-79). Then they defeated Poland (89-59) and lost to Serbia (70-100). The decisive meeting for Finland in Week 4 was against the Czech Republic, 98-88. So far Finland is fourth in Group D, but in case of victory over the Netherlands they have a chance to go even higher.
Netherlands lost all their games
The Dutch team, as expected, could not compete with their rivals in the group and is in last place with 4 defeats in 4 games ahead of the last round. The Netherlands lost to Serbia (76-100), Israel (67-74), Czech Republic (80-88) and Poland (69-75). The Netherlands team confirmed their status as the main underdog in this EuroBasket.
Expert Betting Tips
Finland has already made the playoffs, but they'd like to fight for the higher position in their group in the final stretch in order to avoid facing the big powers in the last eight. The Netherlands have deservedly lost all their matches and are unlikely to win the last game of the championship as well.
Prediction: Finland will win.
