France vs Georgia Prediction and Betting Tips – EuroBasket 2025

This article previews the France vs Georgia EuroBasket 2025 Round of 16 matchup, set for Sunday, 7 September at 14:15 CET. With both teams carrying different strengths into this clash, a high-scoring game could be on the cards.

🏀 Prediction: Over 152.5 Points @1.80

France’s group stage showcased both their depth and inconsistency. Despite the absences of Victor Wembanyama, Evan Fournier, Rudy Gobert, and others, France still managed to top their group thanks to their physical advantage and balanced scoring. They average among the top three in points scored per game, and while their three-point shooting has been streaky, on good nights they can approach 60% from beyond the arc.

Georgia arrives as an underdog but has proven capable of producing fireworks. Their inside trio of Shengelia, Bitadze, and Mamukelashvili forces constant defensive attention, while Kamar Baldwin provides scoring punch from the perimeter. They upset Spain in the group stage and later held their nerve in a decisive battle against Cyprus, showing resilience in big moments. While their outside shooting numbers have been underwhelming, they play with intensity that often leads to fast-paced stretches and higher scores.

Both teams have defensive vulnerabilities – France struggles to close out games consistently, while Georgia’s reliance on inside scoring often leaves them exposed in transition. Combined with the French ability to push the pace, this points to a total that could easily exceed 152.5.
