Iran vs. France
BET: France (-28) at the spread with PointsBet (-110)
This game officially gets started on Friday night ET with France looking to build upon their strong campaign by tearing apart the weak Iranian team. Led by Rudy Gobert and Evan Fournier, the French also have a dominant 20-point victory over the Czech Republic to hang their hats on while for Iran, they'll still be licking their wounds after the sheeembarrassmentnt of their loss to the US. The line is huge, but it's looking good for the men in Blue and White.
Italy vs. Nigeria
BET: Italy (-6) at the spread with PointsBet (-108)
This game looks intriguing, but ultimately we expect the Italians' class to shine through with qualification on the line. Italy are currently ranked second on the Group B table after beating Germany and pushing Australia all the way, while Nigeria haven't been able to recapture the form that saw them beat Team USA in the warm up tournament in Las Vegas, losing both their matches so far.
