Argentina vs Nigeria Prediction & Betting Tips - Women's World Cup
by Steve Ashfield | in Basketball Predictions
Nigeria have been the surprise of the tournament so far with a surprise win over Turkey in their second match in this group. They started their campaign in Group B with a creditable 86-68 defeat by strongly fancied Australia, then they shocked Turkey by beating them 74-68. That gives them three points from their two games but they aren't yet assured of a top three finish as a loss to Argentina and a Turkish win over Australia would see them drop from second to bottom in the group and out of the tournament.
That situation isn't likely to arise though. Argentina have only scored 80 points in their two games losing 63-37 to Turkey and then 84-43 to Australia. They come into this game having lost their last four internationals with their last win being a narrow three-point win over lowly ranked Puerto Rico who have also lost their first two games in this tournament. Nigeria have all the momentum coming into this game and will get the victory, the tip is to go for under 133.5 points to be scored in the match.
