This weekend is reserved for the national teams as the 2nd window of the  FIBA EuroBasket 2022 Qualifiers is right in front of us.

The upcoming FIBA EuroBasket 2022 Qualifiers window will start on Friday, November 27 and will last until Monday, November 30. Two rounds will be played in each group.

Recall that the three highest-placed teams from each group, except the groups which include the FIBA EuroBasket 2022 hosts (Czech Republic, Georgia, Germany, and Italy), will qualify for the FIBA EuroBasket 2022. For the groups containing the FIBA EuroBasket 2022 hosts, the host and the two other highest placed teams will qualify for the FIBA EuroBasket 2022

Let’s start with Group B (Tallin, Estonia), in which North Macedonia will firstly face Italy on Saturday evening, while then they will play against hosts Estonia on Monday evening. North Macedonia is currently the only winless team in this group and they need to improve that score in the upcoming games in order to stay in the race for FIBA Eurobasket 2022 tickets.

1 Italy 2 2 0
2 Estonia 2 1 1
3 Russia 2 1 1
4 North Macedonia 2 0 2

 

Let’s now move to Group D (Istanbul, Turkey) where Croatia is about to face hosts Turkey on Friday evening and Sweden on Sunday evening. Croatia is currently the top placed team in this group with the perfect score of 2-0, so they might actually seal their FIBA EuroBasket 2022 spot already this weekend.

1 Croatia 2 2 0
2 Netherlands 2 1 1
3 Sweden 2 1 1
4 Turkey 2 0 2

 

In Group E (Espoo, Finland) Serbia will play against Switzerland on Saturday evening and then against hosts Finland on Monday evening. Serbia currently have the score of 1-1, but with two wins from the upcoming two games they might grab the ticket for the FIBA EuroBasket 2022 already in this window.

1 Georgia 2 2 0
2 Serbia 2 1 1
3 Finland 2 1 1
4 Switzerland 2 0 2

 

In Group F (Ljubljana, Slovenia), Slovenia will try to use the home court advantage in their games against Ukraine on Saturday evening and against Hungary on Monday evening. Slovenia have the overall score of 1-1, so the upcoming two games are very important for them in the race for the FIBA Eurobasket 2022.

1 Hungary 2 2 0
2 Ukraine 2 1 1
3 Slovenia 2 1 1

In Group G (Pau, France), Montenegro will play two extremely important games this weekend. They will firstly face Germany on Friday evening, while then they will play against Great Britain on Sunday evening. All four teams in this group currently have the score of 1-1 and that is why the upcoming weekend is so important for each side.

1 Germany 2 1 1
2 France 2 1 1
3 Great Britain 2 1 1
4 Montenegro 2 1 1

 

Finally, in Group H (Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina) the home team have a big chance to reach the FIBA EuroBasket 2022. Bosnia and Herzegovina will play against Bulgaria on Friday evening, while then they will face Latvia on Sunday evening. If they score two wins, Bosnia and Herzegovina team might seal the spot on the FIBA EuroBasket 2022 already this weekend.
