The opening day of the 2025 EuroBasket competition will see the Czech Republic and Portugal lock horns on Wednesday morning in Group A. The Czech Republic will enter this matchup full of confidence that they can sweep aside their opponents with bookies backing them up on the moneyline. They’ll look to build on their recent 100-87 win over Georgia. The Czech Republic will place most of their hopes on Atlanta Hawks shooting guard, Vit Krejci, who thrives in open spaces.
Portugal, meanwhile, also have their own star in Bolton Celtic’s Neemias Queta. The 26-year-old will be eager to show the world that his country belongs on the big stage after a 14-year absence. He’s a walking double-double threat when things go his way and has been a consistent name on the team. That’s not all; Queta has posted impressive numbers lately, averaging 11.5 rebounds and 18.5 points per contest. This tournament could be his moment to shine.

Bookmakers anticipate a closely contested game, giving the Czech Republic a 57% win probability. They look like a solid team on paper, scoring 652 points in the last eight games, which is an average of 81.5 PPG. However, their defense has disappointed them in recent matches, which could be their main undoing against the Portuguese. The Czech Republic conceded 703 points in the last eight games, an average of 88.3 PPG. Portugal is doing better in this department, conceding an average of 77.5 points per contest. That’s why we’re picking them to edge out the Czech Republic.
