Portugal vs USA Prediction & Picks - Handball World Championship

 by Tyler Doty | in Handball World Championship Picks

The Portuguese national team has raised the level of its handball at the national team level in recent years.

So much so, that in a group that should be dominated by the Norwegian team, the Portuguese team is lined up to get one of the two remaining places for the next phase. On top of this, the Portugese team starts as a favorite for second place, ahead of the United States and an always competitive team like Brazil.

One only has to look at the recent record to see how the Portuguese national team achieved its best World Cup performance in 2021, finishing tenth, but in 2023 it came close to it by being thirteenth. And at the European Championship, a tournament that is practically a World Cup, it was sixth in 2020 but came from seventh in the most recent edition.

The U.S. team, one of the weakest in the tournament and which had not won a World Cup match until 2023, will likely be the team eliminated from this group.
