Bosnia & Herzegovina takes on Italy on Monday, September 1, at the Spyros Kyprianou Arena in Cyprus.
Both these Group C teams split their first two games in the group stage of EuroBasket 2025. Italy bounced back from an opening game loss with an inspired 78-62 drubbing of Georgia. The Italians led right from the jump and held off any runs from Goga Bitadze and the Georgians.
Saliou Niang topscored for Italy with 15 markers in just a little more than 17 minutes of play. Italian star wing Simone Fontecchio bounced back from a forgettable game and contributed 14 points in the win. He still struggled from the three-point line (0-5 3P), but he capitalized on his trips to the charity stripe (6-6 FT).
On the other end, Bosnia & Herzegovina is coming off an 88-67 loss to Spain. They fell behind by double digits after the first half, and a strong third quarter from the Spaniards ultimately sealed the game.
Only two BIH players reached double digits in scoring, with Kenan Kamenjas hauling a double-double of 14 points and 10 rebounds. NBA veteran center Jusuf Nurkic produced 10 points and 7 boards.
BIH made only three of their 21 attempts from three-point territory, something that they need to fix on Monday's game against Italy.

Our Bosnia & Herzegovina vs Italy Prediction
After losing their opening game, Italy showed a bit of their depth in their recent win against Georgia. Despite NBA-experienced players like Simone Fontecchio, Nicolo Melli, and Danilo Gallinari not producing their expected numbers, the Italians got good games from Saliou Niang and Mouhamet Diouf.
Meanwhile, Bosnia & Herzegovina's three-point woes were exposed in their loss to Spain. If this continues, they'll find it difficult to keep up with Italy. Our prediction for the Bosnia & Herzegovina vs Italy match is: Italy (-13.5) cover the spread.All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
