France takes on Slovenia on Saturday, August 30, at the Spodek Arena in Poland.
Slovenia owns the FIBA head-to-head advantage against France, 6-3. In their most recent game during the 2022 EuroBasket, Slovenia won, 88-82.
However, the Slovenians are coming off a 105-95 loss to the hosts Poland in their opening match. It was a close game after the first half, but Poland came out firing in the third quarter. Slovenian's defense struggled mightily, as they allowed Poland to shoot an excellent 58.6% from the field.
The loss also wasted Luka Doncic's dynamic stat line of 34 points, 4 rebounds, 9 assists, and 5 steals. Luka also went to the free throw line at will, making 17 of his 18 attempts from the charity stripe.
Meanwhile, France won their opening game against Belgium, 92-64. It was a balanced offensive attack that saw five French players score in double digits. Bilal Coulibaly and Elie Okobo topscored with 12 points each, while Guerschon Yabusele made nine of his ten free throws for an 11-point performance.
France does not have their towering big men, Rudy Gobert and Victor Wembanyama, in this year's EuroBasket. But they still have the depth to match up against Slovenia.

Our France vs Slovenia Prediction
Slovenia owns the head-to-head advantage against France, but they're coming off a loss in their opening match. Luka Doncic came up with his usual all-around play, but Slovenia's defense was exposed in their loss to Poland.
Meanwhile, France flexed their depth in their opening win against Belgium. But if they cannot contain Doncic, Slovenia can keep this game close or even win at the end. Our prediction for the France vs Slovenia match is: Slovenia (+13.5) cover the spread.All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
