<p>The first quarter-final game at the <a href="https://www.sportsbet.com.au/betting/basketball-aus-other/eurobasket-men">2025 EuroBasket</a> (Wednesday, September 10, 00:00 AEST) will see Turkey and Poland square off at the Xiaomi Arena in Riga.</p> <p>Turkey has been undefeated so far in the tournament and has taken over the main favourite role in the competition. Poland had two losses in the group stage, but still managed to find its place among the top eight.</p> <p>The last time these two teams met at the EuroBasket in 2011, Poland stunned Turkey, and head coach Igor Milicic hopes for another miracle. Can Poland really do it?</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <h2>Turkey vs Poland: Betting Preview</h2> <p>Turkey had a dominant performance in Group A of the 2025 EuroBasket with a perfect 5-0 record. Beating Serbia 95-90 in the last game of the group stage was a huge confidence boost for Ergin Ataman’s team, and now the Turkish are seen as the team to beat.</p> <p>They did not play their best basketball in the last 16 round against Sweden, but managed to go through with an 85-79 win.</p> <p>Poland also had a solid start to the tournament, winning the first three games of the group stage, but then lost back-to-back games against France and Belgium. Anyway, they were already in for the last 16, and brought back their top game against Bosnia and Herzegovina, winning 80-62.</p> <p>Turkey has won 5 of the last 9 games against Poland, and this will be their first meeting at the EuroBasket after 14 years.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Results have included:</p> <ul> <li>Turkey won 98-73 in 2023</li> <li>Turkey won 87-84 in 2023</li> <li>Poland won 87-86 in 2022</li> <li>Turkey won 94-78 in 2022</li> <li>Poland won 83-73 in 2015</li> <li>Turkey won 81-68 in 2013</li> <li>Poland won 95-69 in 2012</li> <li>Turkey won 70-62 in 2012</li> <li>Poland won 84-83 in 2011</li> </ul> <p>&nbsp;</p> <h2>Turkey vs Poland: Betting Predictions</h2> <p>The latest <a href="https://www.sportsbet.com.au/betting/basketball-aus-other/eurobasket-men/turkiye-v-poland-9600946">Turkey vs Poland 2025 EuroBasket betting odds</a> have Turkey to win the contest and advance to the semi-finals. They had a slow start in the last game against Sweden, and we should expect much better performance from the Turkish side.</p> <p>Alperen Sengun is the frontrunner in the MVP race of the competition, and Poland has no big man who can at least slow down the centre of the Houston Rockets.</p> <p>Jordan Loyd is the main man for Poland and sits fifth among the top scorers of the competition. He will need to be close to perfect to give Poland a chance, which will be very difficult given the Turkish defence.</p> <p>Unlike the game against Sweden, Turkey will start strong in this one and build a decent lead in the opening quarter. Given that, going with Turkey to cover the handicap is a safe bet.</p> <p>When it comes to the player props, going with the points under on Loyd should work, since the line will be set pretty high given his average of 23 points per game, and Turkey has what it takes to lock him down.</p>
