Israel versus Iceland is a EuroBasket clash on Thursday afternoon in Group D. Israel is one of the most overlooked sides, although they pack enough talent within their ranks to pull off an upset. Deni Avdija of the NBA side Portland Trail Blazers will lead the Israelis in their hunt for glory at this event. The 24-year-old scored an average of 16.9 points and 7.9 rebounds per match during the 2024 NBA season. He’ll certainly be among the rising stars to watch at this tournament.
Iceland, on the other hand, will look to pull off an upset against the evidently talented Israelis. The Icelanders will make their third straight EuroBasket appearance after participating in the 2015 and 2017 editions. They’ll be fired up to record their first-ever victory at this FIBA event. Iceland’s road to qualification was also impressive, having defeated Turkey and Hungary at home while picking up an away win against Italy. They are another exciting team to watch.

Our Israel vs Iceland Prediction
Bookmakers are not expecting this game to be even close, listing Israel as the warm -625 betting favorites with an 82% win probability. The Israelis have a lot of talent in their roster, who can help them sweep aside Iceland. Besides Avdija, Ben Saraf of the Brooklyn Nets will also want to impress and build on his tremendous campaign in the EuroCup. Their exciting backcourt duo of Noam Yaacov and Yam Madar can also cause trouble as TJ Leaf holds down the middle. We expect a dominant display from Israel on Thursday.
Our prediction for Israel vs Iceland: Israel to cover -10.5 spread.
