THE PREDICTION

The play-off for fifth place will likely see a competitive encounter between neighbours Latvia and Lithuania. Both teams were eliminated by eventual finalists as Latvia were beaten by just two points against Germany while Lithuania lost 87-68 to Serbia. So much will depend on how much the teams are but local rivalry should see both teams give their all. Latvia have had some very intense games and less time between their matches which could hamper them here. Lithuania will be eager to sign off in positive fashion and they are slightly favoured to edge what should be a close game.

BETTING TIP: Lithuania to win
