France will look to start on a high as they take on Hungary on matchday one of Group B of the 2026 FIBA Women's Basketball World Cup on Friday. This match at the Berlin Arena in Berlin between the 2nd-ranked 'Les Bleues' and the 19th-ranked Hungarians is likely to be a tight affair, and our prediction backs a surprise under 146.5 points.
The French women are in their 12th World Cup and a seventh in a row. Their best performance was finishing third in 1953, while they lost in the quarter-finals in the 2022 edition. Hungary are playing their sixth tournament on the global stage and their first since 1998.
The Hungarians qualified for the World Cup by finishing second in tournament C of the qualifiers behind Australia. They had eight points (W3, L2), losing against Canada and Australia, while needing overtime to defeat Argentina.
Hungary prepared for the tournament with a 68-62 win over Germany in a friendly.
France topped their group in the qualifiers with an all-win record (W5) that saw them finish with a point differential of +145. The French were beaten 75-72 by Italy in their preparatory game, but they have a perfect roster of offense and defense that should see them ease to a win here, led by their star player Gabby Williams.

Our Hungary vs France Prediction
France are coming off a heart-breaking loss in the 2024 Olympics, so the intent in the camp will be high. Gabby Williams, who plays for the Golden State Valkyries in the WNBA, will be their lynchpin. Hungary are back on the global stage after 1998, after a 3-2 record in the qualifying tournament. Dorka Juhasz, who isn't a starter for her WNBA team, the Minnesota Lynx, will be key for Hungary's chances.
This game could go against the recent trend of these sides and produce a low-scoring result. That's why our Hungary vs France prediction is under 146.5 points.
If your team in the Hungary and France game takes a 20-point lead, you win!
If you want to place a bet on the moneyline in the Hungary vs France game, then bet365 is the place to do it. If the team that you have bet on takes a 20-point lead in the game, then bet365 will pay your bet out as a winner. If your team goes on to lose, you are still a winner.
All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
