Greece vs Latvia 2023 FIBA Basketball World Cup Qualifiers will be held on November 11, 7:00 PM (International Time) and November 11, 10:30 PM (Indian Time) at Heraklion Arena (Heraklion).
On 11.11.2022, Greece will play Latvia. The game will be played as a part of the World Cup qualifying process. Let’s examine the clubs’ most recent results to get the best odds for this matchup. The opponents are among the top teams in Group I and have a strong chance of securing one of the three World Cup tickets. However, it is tough to unwind because of how closely the teams are positioned inside the organization.
Greece therefore holds the advantage in this section of three games as it has two wins to its credit. The teams last faced off in February of last year during the Eurobasket qualification round. Then, Greece triumphed away, 97:94.
In its six games thus far in the current qualifying round, Greece has lost twice. The second setback occurred in August, when the squad fell to Serbia on a visit following the results of overtime – 94:100. It is all the more remarkable because one of them was inflicted by Great Britain, an obvious outsider of Group I. But back then, all of the best players who were getting ready for the Eurobasket were on the squads. On it, the Greeks lost to Germany in the quarterfinals and were forced to abandon the competition.
The present selection in Latvia is excellent. They suffered a loss to Serbia in the opening game with a score of a 100:101, but they subsequently went on to post a run of five victories to take the top spot in the rankings. The national team didn’t compete in the most recent Eurobasket, thus in August it focused all of its resources on the present lineup. The squad then triumphed over Turkey with a score of 111:85, but struggled against Great Britain, losing 87:80.
