Talk about a game that's got fans perched at the edge of their seats - Serbia taking on China in women's basketball. The financial department seems to have a soft corner for China in this match, putting their money on team in red. But let's dig deeper, shall we?
On Serbia's corner, the dynamic duo of Dragana Stankovic and Jovana Nogic seems to be on a roll, putting up quite the stats this season. Stankovic with her double-double average has been at the center of Serbia's offensive charge. Nogic, on the other hand, has admirably supplemented the attack, filling up the stats sheet like it's her day job. And not to forget, Yvonne Anderson who has been raining assists this season like she's generously preparing a Thanksgiving feast.
On the other side, let's not take China lightly. You talk about Li Yueru and you're essentially speaking about the epitome of domination. Scoring 31 points and grabbing 15 boards per game, she's more of a juggernaut than seemly. Li Meng adds the supporting act with her balanced performance, making every opponent think twice before taking China lightly.
Howbeit, looking at the recent match history, Serbia's been holding their own quite effectively. And despite an early stumble against France, they've admirably righted their ship. China, Well, not so much. They've had a taste of defeat more frequently than they'd have liked. Position-wise, Serbia stands #2 in Group A while China, falling behind a little bit at #4.
Adding it all up, Serbia has issues, but they also have a certain resilience. And the numbers, well they just love Serbia right now. So, let's toss those coins and expect them to fall in Serbia's favor.
