The 2024 Olympics feature a high-stakes showdown as Germany and Serbia face off for the bronze medal.

Both teams, who were tipped to reach the final, are now vying for the third spot after dramatic Semi-Final defeats. Germany, who were edged out by France in a close 82-78 loss, will look to bounce back.

'King Ben' gets one over Karsten Warholm in Paris to clinch Olympic gold in the 400mH.

Their key player, Dennis Schroder, was instrumental in their World Cup victory over Serbia last year, scoring 28 points in a narrow 83-77 win. Germany will need Schroder’s top form to secure a medal.

Serbia’s Semi-Final saw them fall short against the USA, losing 95-91 despite a valiant effort.

The absence of Ognjen Dobric in their previous encounter with Germany proved costly, as his defensive skills were missed.

Dobric, along with Aleksa Avramovic and Marko Guduric, will be crucial in their attempt to disrupt Germany’s offense and protect the rim.

Chebet repeated her heroics from the 5000m to win yet another gold medal in the 10,000m.

The game will tip off at 11:00 CET, a challenging early start for both teams. Germany, who have previously adapted well to early games, might use their experience from an earlier match against Greece to their advantage.

Conversely, Serbia, who played late in their Semi-Final, may struggle with the early tip-off.

Statistically, the match will likely come down to turnovers and fast breaks. Germany, with the lowest turnover rate at the Olympics, will need to maintain this composure.

Canada were crowned the Olympics 4x100m relay champions as Team USA missed out on the podium after a poor baton exchange with South Africa bagging a silver medal.

Serbia, however, excels in generating steals and fast break points, averaging 17.2 per game.

The outcome will hinge on whether Serbia can force turnovers and capitalize on fast breaks or if Germany’s disciplined play and experience will secure them their first Olympic medal.
