Team USA continues to showcase exceptional scoring ability, frequently achieving over 90 points in most matches over the past two years—even with a less powerful lineup. Experts strongly favor them to keep their streak alive and expect at least 91 points in the upcoming game against Le Azzurri. The key conclusion is to back Team USA for another high-scoring performance, cementing their status as strong favorites.

Match Preview 


USA battled Italy in the World Cup 2026 global qualifiers in March and claimed a commanding 93-59 victory. Can Le Azzurri be more competitive in Berlin tonight? 

Italy Back to the Big Scene After a Long Time


Italy Women have made a big step toward securing a spot at the FIBA Basketball World Cup 2026 playoffs after beating Czech Republic 63-54 in the opening round on Friday. 

Their defense was fantastic here, especially in the second half, allowing just 22 points, but there is a lot of room for improvement with their three-point shooting (5/24 from beyond the arc). Cecilia Zandalasini was named player of the match, finishing with 19 points, five rebounds and three assists. 

Le Azzurri had an amazing run at EuroBasket last year, finishing 3rd, while this is their first WC appearance after 32 years of waiting. 

USA Impressed in the Opening Round


It took only ten minutes for the reigning world champions USA to break down China in the opening round, building an early lead and never letting go, claiming a convincing 94-61 victory. 

Four players scored double digits, while Caitlin Clark stood out with 14 points and 11 assists. The Stars and Stripes had around 45% shooting from the field here, while scoring 18 second-chance points thanks to 16 offensive rebounds. 

The USA Women's team had an impeccable run four years ago in Australia, winning all eight games at the World Championship 2022 to secure their fourth consecutive gold medal, crushing China 83-61 in the final match.

Verdict

Even with a weaker roster, USA have scored 90+ points in the majority of their games in the last two years. They are once again tagged massive favorites to win, and I will back them to net at least 91 against Le Azzurri.
