<p>Estonia and Portugal shared a similar record after three games during their <a href="https://www.sportsbet.com.au/betting/basketball-aus-other/eurobasket-men">2025 EuroBasket competition</a>.</p> <p>When they do step out onto the court at the Arena Riga in Latvia on Wednesday (21:45 AEST), there could be plenty to play for.</p> <p>The pair are both involved in Group A, having managed to win one game and lose the other two. Their clash in the final game could have serious ramifications on the remainder of their tournament, depending on what happens in their encounters before.</p> <h2>Estonia vs Portugal: Betting Preview</h2> <p>A close matchup can be expected between the two nations, based on the first three games played so far.</p> <p>Team statistics from EuroBasket show Estonia averaging 74.3 points per game (ppg) versus Portugal's 61.7, while Portugal edges Estonia in rebounds per game (36.7 vs 34.7). Portugal’s Neemias Queta brings an NBA pedigree (playing for the Boston Celtics), while Estonia relies on Maik-Kalev Kotsar in the paint.</p> <p>When examining the breakdown of starters in the first three games, Portugal has a slight edge. Estonia gets typically 13.9 points, 7.6 rebounds, and 3.8 assists from starters per game over recent tournament play. Portugal starters average 14.9 points, 6.2 rebounds, and 3.5 assists per game in the current EuroBasket stats.</p> <p>Kristian Kullamae is the top scorer for Estonia, averaging 12.0 points per game, and has solid assist numbers. Meanwhile, Janari Joesaar leads Estonia in efficiency (14.0) and rebounds (5.7 per game). Travante Williams leads Portugal with 13 points per game, with Diogo Ventura serving as the main playmaker, averaging 6.4 points and 4.2 assists.</p> <p>However, it would seem that one nation has a perceived dominance over the other when hitting the court. The recent head-to-heads favour Estonia, with four wins in their last six meetings. Still, it has been almost 10 years since the two nations played against each other.</p> <p>The last meeting between them was in 2016, during the FIBA EuroBasket Qualifiers. Estonia would win both meetings that year in the group phase, with scores of 76-68 and 82-63. They also met in qualifiers in 2013, which was the last time Portugal won against their Balkan opponents.</p> <p>Estonia vs Portugal: Betting Predictions</p> <p>The latest <a href="https://www.sportsbet.com.au/betting/basketball-aus-other/eurobasket-men/estonia-v-portugal-9581552">Estonia vs Portugal 2025 EuroBasket betting odds</a> favour Estonia based on the H2H record, although a close game can be expected between the pair. Indeed, games have been relatively tight, with the most significant winning margin being just 21 points.</p> <p>With this in mind, it might be worth considering the ‘Handicap’ bet, with Portugal having a good chance to cover the spread. However, it will also be worth thinking about the total points scored.</p> <p>Neither nation has scored large numbers in their games, making backing the ‘Under’ the potential value bet in this market.</p>
