This Group B round three fixture in the 2025 EuroBasket will pit World No. 48 Great Britain against 49th-ranked Sweden in an evenly matched encounter on Saturday. The two teams, separated by just one place in the world rankings, will be looking to break their duck after losing their opening two fixtures in the tournament. Here is our prediction for the match.
Denver Nuggets center Jonas Valančiūnas' 18-point heroics helped Lithuania inflict a heavy defeat on Great Britain in their 2025 EuroBasket opener. They lost three quarters and drew one to suffer a humiliating 94-70 defeat against the Lithuanians.
Their last outing against Finland on Friday ended in another crushing 109-79 defeat. NBA star Lauri Markkanen led the rout for the co-hosts, scoring 43 points to tie EuroBasket's all-time single-game scoring tally. Marc Stuetel's men have now lost six of their last seven matches and will hope to return to winning ways on Saturday.
Sweden are also looking for their first win in the 2025 EuroBasket. The Blue and Yellow lost their opening fixture 93-90 against Finland. Their second fixture against Germany ended with a 105-83 defeat, extending their losing streak to six matches. Mikko Riipinen's side will desperately look to end this long losing streak, taking on Great Britain on Saturday.

Our Great Britain vs Sweden Prediction
Great Britain and Sweden have endured a run of underwhelming performances lately and are now set to end their losing run heading into this match. Meanwhile, Great Britain have managed one win in their last six matches unlike their opponents Sweden who have lost their last six.
Nevertheless, both teams stand a good chance of winning this battle of near-equals on Saturday. They are separated by just one place in the world rankings and we don't expect the result to be decided by a wide margin either. Our Great Britain vs Sweden prediction is Great Britain +6.5 handicap points.
