USA vs South Sudan: prediction & betting tips 31/07/2024

USA

The US team didn’t always look promising in friendly games. They had to play hard to beat South Sudan (101:100). Anyway, this can be a good experience for Steve Kerr and other coaches. It's clear that the United States will take Marial Shayok and Carlik Jones much more seriously this time.

South Sudan

South Sudan has already won their main game in this tournament and can now play for fun. But their size and athletic ability, which worked against Puerto Rico, might not be enough against Anthony Davis and Joel Embiid. Also, South Sudan is one of the fifth worst teams, because they made many mistakes in their first game, losing the ball 15 times. The Americans, who like to play fast, will use this to their advantage.

USA - South Sudan Prediction

Both the USA and South Sudan started the Olympic tournament with wins. The United States proved that they should be top of their group. While South Sudan won the most important match against Puerto Rico (90:79).

Even though the US team beat Serbia confidently (110:84), they can still get much better. The current NBA champion Jayson Tatum, who didn’t play in the first match, will likely play in this game and do very well. The US team won't make the same mistakes they made in the friendly game. We think they will win by a big margin.
