The FIBA Eurobasket quarter-finals will witness an unlikely matchup between two sides that pulled off shocking upsets in the Round of 16 as Finland and Georgia face off. Finland is still riding high after a shock victory over tournament favorites Serbia, a thrilling win where they still conceded 86 points. Meanwhile, Georgia's victory might be even more stunning, as they sent home France in a dramatic 80-70 win. The question now is, who has a quarter final spot?

Despite their incredible upset against Serbia, Finland's defense remains a major concern. They allowed a massive 86 points in that game, a trend that’s been consistent recently. In their six qualification games, Finland has allowed 75+ points in five of them. This defensive weakness extends beyond the tournament, as they have conceded over 75.5 points in 14 of their last 15 competitive games outside of friendlies.

Moreover, in this tournament so far, Finland is allowing a staggering average of 82 points per game. On the other side of the court, Georgia’s offense has been quietly consistent. They have cleared the 75.5-point line in four of their six games in the tournament and in six of their last eight games overall.

Yet, their recent history against Finland that’s most telling. They have not only defeated Finland in their two most recent head-to-head matchups but also cleared the 76-point mark in both games, with 81 and 90 points respectively.
