Match Preview 


Even withour Bertans and Porzingis, Latvians are still tagged big favorites to win this clash. The Netherlands were victorious in the first h2h meeting in late 2025, so we should get an interesting match.

Netherlands Wasted Huge Chance to Qualify


The Netherlands have a high chance of advancing to the second phase of the FIBA World Cup 2027 qualifiers, currently holding second place in Group F with a 2-2 record. 

They have been inconsistent in both playing windows so far, starting the campaign by defeating a weakened Latvia side 86-78 in Riga, but couldn't build on that result and suffered an 85-83 home defeat to Poland. 

The third round saw them paired against the biggest underdog in the group, Austria, and they claimed an 81-71 victory in Wien, with Keye van der Vuurst dominating the floor with 25 points. All they needed to advance was another win against the same opponent at home, but they shockingly lost 88-87 due to poor defending. 

Latvia Hoping for a New Coach Bounce 


Latvia have been one of the biggest underperformers in the FIBA World Cup 2027 qualifiers so far, claiming just one win in four matches, which prompted big changes as they sacked head coach Sito Alonso and appointed Janis Gailtis, who is set to make his debut. 

After a disappointing opening loss against the Netherlands, the Latvians claimed their only victory so far against underdog Austria 86-68, but then suffered another defeat to Poland, 84-82, in front of the home crowd. 

Latvia locked horns with the Poles in their most recent appearance as well, getting crushed 92-72 in Gdynia. Arturs Strautins was their standout performer with 20 points and three rebounds.
