Lithuania vs. Sweden preview

Lithuania posted a 6-1 record in preliminary games and has carried this form into the tournament. After defeating Great Britain and Montenegro in its first two games, it came unstuck against world champion Germany.

However, the team recovered quickly and beat Finland 81-78 to qualify for the knockout stages. Bayern Munich star Rokas Jokubaitis leads Lithuania in scoring, averaging 17.3 points and 8.5 assists.

On the other hand, Sweden has been poor to say the least. Entering the tournament with a 1-4 record, the team lost its first two games against Finland and Germany. Although it did manage a win against bottom-placed Great Britain, it followed it up with a defeat against Montenegro.

The Miami Heat's Pelle Larsson has been Sweden's top performer in the tournament, averaging 20.3 points per game. However, his performances have not translated to team success, as Sweden is on the brink of elimination.
