Belgium and France will clash on Thursday afternoon in Group D (Katowice) of the 2025 EuroBasket event. Belgium will come into this matchup as the heavy +1000 betting underdogs as they look to cause an upset against one of the tournament favorites. They have participated in every EuroBasket event since 2011, which shows an impressive level of consistency. However, a win against France on Thursday could see pundits take their chances more seriously.
France, on the other hand, will be keen to get off with a convincing win on Matchday 1. They are among the favorites to lift the trophy this year, sitting behind Serbia and Germany on the betting boards. However, France will not have the luxury of fielding a strong squad at this tournament. Star players like Victor Wembanyama, Nicolas Batum, and Rudy Gobert will not feature. Still, their head coach, Frederick Fauthoux, will expect a dominant performance against Belgium.

Our Belgium vs France Prediction
France will miss seven of their 12 players who won silver at the 2024 Paris Olympics. Some players wanted rest, whereas others are injured or retired. This means they’ll be in transition mode with Alexandre Sarr of the Wizards expected to lead the team. But despite their weakened roster, we expect them to sweep aside the Belgians on Thursday night and possibly cover the -17.5 spread. Note that France defeated Belgium in all their last seven clashes. In addition, this matchup hasn’t been a high-scoring one lately, with the total points going over only once in their previous three meetings.
Our prediction for Belgium vs France: Under 156.5 total points.
