Basketball never stops and now we are into the European Pre-Qualifiers which will feature some interesting squads. In this match-up, Belarus and Romania square off to further their basketball ambitions for 2023 FIBA World Cup. More about BLR vs ROM Dream 11 will be given below.
Both Belarus and Romania walk into the game walk into this game after losing to Latvia by a wide margin. While Romania has shown better form than Belarus, both teams will need to put on a fight to advance further. Both teams have a lot of similarities in terms of shot selection and like to operate between the mid-range and inside areas. Romania has an edge over Belarus in terms of offense, but it is not like the two teams are separated by daylight. Both teams are at times vulnerable on defense and can leak outside shots as well. However, they will put all on the floor since a lot is at stake during this game. Romania may have the slight edge but Belarus can triumph if they run an organized offense.
Match Timing: 9 August, @ 10:00 PM Venue: Riga, Arena Riga
The game will occur at Riga Arena, which is in the Latvian city Riga.
