Teams Preview
Brazil Preview
Brazil Women had a really good run in the recently concluded Women's FIBA Ameri Cup where they topped the group stage with four wins and carried on that momentum in the quarter finals squashing Mexico Women 84-61. Then in the semi finals it was another dominant one sided win against Argentina Women with the end scoreline being 68-108.
But in the finals they met an undefeated USA side which didn't allow the glory to Brazil as they lost 92-84, a closely contested match. In the tournament in the eight matches Brazil Women were the second best offensive team averaging 85.7 points per game and were the third best defensive team allowing 61.6 points per game.
Damiris Dantas was the leading scorer in that tournament averaging 21.4 points per game, while Bella Nascimento (15 points per game) and Kamila Cardoso (14.9 points per game) were the two other key contributors. These three will once again be key against a strong Belgium side who like to score in the interior and are equally lethal from long range.
Belgium Preview
Belgium Women head into this contest on the back of an unbeaten FIBA Women's EuroBasket title run. They won their group stage matches with ease and then squashed Germany Women 83–59 in the quarterfinals. The semifinal game was a much closer affair, where they eked out a 66–64, two-point win over Italy Women.
In the finals, they were up against Spain Women. They managed another narrow two-point victory in a game that went down to the last second, with Belgium Women eventually ending up on the winning side with a 67–65 scoreline.
In that tournament, Belgium Women averaged 76 points per game across six matches on the offensive end, shooting 46.3% from the field. However, they had an abysmal time with their three-point shooting at 29.7%. On the defensive end, they allowed only 58.8 points per game, standing out as the best defensive unit. They were also a strong rebounding team, averaging 41.7 rebounds per game.
Belgium faces a great challenge against an emerging Brazil side that has been performing well and giving tough competition to top teams around the world, such as the USA. Consequently, this game is going to be all about how Belgium's defense operates.
