The match
This was expected to be one of the medal matches, but instead Serbia and United States of America play in the consolation match with a fifth-place finish at best for the winner. Serbia are coming off consecutive losses to Spain (69-81) and Argentina (87-97). The loss to Argentina would hurt the Serbs more, considering they went into the final quarter trailing by just one point. However, a strong finish from the South Americans coupled with a poor response from Serbia meant they were eliminated even before the semis. On paper, they do have stronger stats than USA but need to put them together to have any chance. Serbia have a 64% two-point shooting rate (compared to 53% of USA), 39% three-point shooting rate (compared to 33% of USA) and 82% free-throw conversion (compared to 74% of USA). The Americans were expected to struggle, after missing out some regular NBA regulars. However, no one predicted that they would lose to Australia in the run-up to the tournament and also their first World Cup game in 13 years. The 79-89 loss to France would rankle the Americans the most, as they took a three-point lead in the third quarter. A whopping 13-point lead for France meant USA were eliminated from the medal placings.Key Statistics
- USA won’t make it to the medal stand for the first time since 2006 and their consecutive win streak stopped at 58.
- Serbia have a 64% two-point shooting rate this tournament, compared to 53% of USA.
- Serbia lead USA 82% to 74% in free throws this tournament.
The bet of our experts
USA need to overcome Serbia and another placement match later in the week to finish fifth, which is the best they can hope for. Their tournament stats and form have not been impressive, at least not in comparison with Serbia. However, Serbia have lost their last two matches and look down for the taking. This won’t be easy for the Americans, but expect them to win this match.
