Group C: Awaken Fontecchio vs reigning champs
We have another European classic on our hands in Group C as reigning champs Spain face Italy. Both teams recovered from their slow start with back-to-back wins so this becomes battle for 3-1 and all but promotion. It should be a close one but Italy have an ace up their sleeve - awaken Simone Fontecchio who drained 39 points against Bosnia and Herzegovina. Earlier, still perfect Greece will kick things off against Jusuf Nurkic and company, whereas Georgia don't expect much resistance from hosts Cyprus.

Group D: Red-hot hosts take on France
After the first two games, one would expect the France vs Poland bout to be the one for the top of the table. However, Israel spoiled those plans so France have to dig themselves out against the red-hot hosts who are looking to make it 4-0. On the other hand, Israel are major favorites against Belgium and are also aiming for the top spot, whereas Slovenia take on Iceland with another chance to see Luka Doncic doing his thing on the court as the Round of 16 looms.
