SERBIA VS PUERTO RICO PREDICTION
There is no excuse here for Serbia not to start strongly at this 5x5 Women’s Basketball Olympic campaign. They have a squad capable of going very far and a friendly fixture on paper to begin with. When assessing their team, it looks significantly superior from an all-round perspective to that of Puerto Rico, which is likely to be reflected on the court.
Backing Serbia to just win this one outright has very little value attached to it from a betting perspective, so a smarter move would be to back Serbia, not only to win, but to do so with a -18.0 point spread.
