Spain vs Australia Prediction & Picks - Men's Olympic Tournament
by Lou Aguila | in Basketball Picks
Three years after winning their first-ever medal in the Olympic men’s basketball competition at the Tokyo Olympics, the Australian Boomers arrive in Paris on a mission to continue their basketball-winning tradition in the greatest sporting spectacle in the world. Australia is coming into Saturday’s showdown with Spain with high morale following a strong buildup, during which they put up a fight against tournament favorites Team USA, 92-98, downed Serbia 84-73, and edged France 83-82. On the other hand, Spain is looking to make their return to the podium after missing out on a medal at the Tokyo Olympics. With the Gasol brothers retired, this Spanish squad will be leaning on their new crop of stars led by the Hernangomez brothers and the experience of six-time Olympian Rudy Fernandez. Spain showcased their might in their two tune-up games, beating Argentina 76-72 and Puerto Rico 107-84.

Our Spain vs Australia Prediction
Spain will be a tricky opponent for Australia since it has the size and the outside shooting to match them. If Australia is ever going to win this match, Josh Giddey must continue to keep his point guard play at a high level because Spain is the kind of team that punishes opponents for every turnover they make. I like Spain as a +165 underdog in this game, considering that they have the personnel and the system to catch any team off guard. Our betting prediction for Australia vs. Spain: Bet on Spain to win, +165, at BetMGM.
