Team USA is widely expected to secure a decisive victory against Hungary and progress to the semifinals. Despite the odds, Hungary has demonstrated impressive performance, averaging 75 points across their last three consecutive wins. While the USA remains the clear favorite, Hungary’s recent scoring prowess suggests they should be able to put up at least 62 points in this clash. The main recommendation is to respect Hungary's offensive capabilities when considering outcomes for this game.

Match Preview 


Hungary Women are on fire after earning three straight victories, but they are given minimal chances of upsetting the reigning champions, the United States, on Thursday. 

USA are the Reigning Champions


USA finished the World Championship 2026 group stages with a 100% win rate, but some of their performances were not as impressive as expected. 

It took only ten minutes for them to break down China in the opening round, building an early lead and never letting go to claim a convincing 94-61 victory. Four players scored in double digits, while Caitlin Clark stood out with 14 points and 11 assists. 

USA looked unrecognizable in their second appearance against heavy underdogs Italy, claiming a narrow 55-52 victory while posting disastrous shooting numbers of 28% from the field and landing 1 out of 12 three-point attempts. Jackie Young was the only player to score in double digits (10 points). 

They had no problems in the final round against Czech Republic, though, claiming a commanding 105-64 victory. 

Hungary Riding High After Three Straight Victories 


Hungary's World Cup 2026 opening performance was disastrous, suffering a heavy 99-53 defeat against France, where they had just 32% shooting from the field and posted 22 turnovers, but then claimed back-to-back wins over Nigeria 71-67 and South Korea 82-73. 

This pushed them up to second place in Group B and secured their spot in the playoffs. 

Hungary were tagged as light favorites in the Round of 16 clash against Japan and delivered, earning a convincing 84-63 victory. Reka Lelik delivered an outstanding performance with 23 points, eight rebounds and four assists (8/12 FG shooting).

Verdict

I have zero doubt USA will earn a convincing win here and cruise to the semifinals, but Hungary deserve respect after winning three games in a row, averaging around 75 points in those games. I will back the European side to score at least 62 in this clash.
