Germany vs Poland basketball predictions and betting tips
Poland’s play in the semi-final disappointed. Their victory was not a safe outcome, but a loss by 41 points was unpredictable for sure. Poland eliminated Slovenia in the quarter-final and Ukraine in the Round of 16, but they met only one strong rival in the group stage and were defeated by Serbia by 27 points. They did not have any chance to place third place in the match against Germany.
Gordon Herbert’s men have won the last three H2H matches against Poland with two by at least eight points. Germany won over France, Lithuania and Greece in this tournament, who are much stronger than Poland’s rivals. Also, their key player Dennis Schroder is unstoppable now. Asian handicap (-9.5) points on Germany looks safe.
Betting prediction: Asian handicap (-9.5) points on Germany
Odds: 1.90 (-111 American; 9/10 Fractional)
