Nigeria will look to salvage what’s left for them in Group C when they face France on Monday morning at the Uber Arena in Berlin. The Nigerians lost their first two games against Hungary and South Korea to sit at the bottom of the group. D’Tigress suffered a 67-71 defeat against Hungary on Saturday despite Amy Okonkwo of Portland Fire tallying 17 points and six rebounds. They’re the +800 betting underdogs against France.
France, meanwhile, is the heavy -10000 betting favorite against Nigeria. The 2024 Olympics finalists got off to a blistering start at this tournament, defeating Hungary 99-53 before outscoring South Korea 95-69 on Saturday. Marine Johannes of New York Liberty and Gabby Williams of Golden State Valkyries continued to dominate the court, tallying 17 and 14 points, respectively. They’re certainly on their way to a perfect start at the World Cup.

Our Nigeria vs France Prediction
France is the consistent side and should cover the -22.5 spread in this matchup. They’ve gone up a gear at this tournament, mixing their defensive cohesiveness and offensive efficiency to outplay their rivals. The European giants frustrated South Korea despite Dominique Malonga having a quiet night by her usual standards. The Seattle Storm Star is making her FIBA World Cup debut after averaging 17 points and 9.0 rebounds this season. That’s despite missing a large part of the season through injury. Their star-studded roster is easily one of the best at this tournament. We’re backing France to win by a street on Monday morning.
Our prediction for Nigeria vs France: France on the -22.5 spread.
