Its back is clearly against the wall when you look at the overwhelming talent, size and experience of the Aussies, who are looking to clinch a ticket to the semifinals for the sixth-consecutive Olympics.<\/p>\n<p>Nevertheless, the Serbians know that they\u2019re still capable of at least making it close. They have a trio of reliable scorers in Sonja Petrovic, Jelena Milovanovic and Ana Dabovic, who all should cause a few problems for the Australia\u2019s defense.<\/p>\n<p>Petrovic, who plays in the WNBA for the Phoenix Mercury, led Serbia in scoring during group play with 16.4 PPG. She also heads into tonight\u2019s game against Australia fresh off back-to-back 20-point performance versus China and Senegal.<\/p>\n<p>Milovanovic and Dabovic, meanwhile, have had a good share of brilliant moments in the tournament. The former is racking up 15.8 PPG, while the Los Angeles Sparks guard is contributing 12.2 PPG and 4.4 APG.<\/p>\n<h3>Betting on Australia (<a href=\"http:\/\/topbet.eu\/sportsbook\/olympics\/basketball-women\" target=\"_blank\">-12<\/a>)<\/h3>\n<p>Australia closed out the group stage of women\u2019s basketball undefeated (5-0) after disposing Belarus on Saturday, 74-66. It was not an easy win to say the least, as the Aussies had to rally back from a 13-point deficit to ultimately come out on top.<\/p>\n<p>Leading the charge for the Opals was none other than Liz Cambage, the leading scorer (22.4 PPG) of the tournament. She came up huge down the stretch with a couple of clutch baskets and momentum-changing plays that helped her team complete the comeback. Cambage finished with 17 points, nine rebounds and an assist.<\/p>\n<p>Now thanks to that win the Australians are set for a date with Serbia in the quarterfinals round today.<\/p>\n<p>Another win for Cambage and co. should be in the bag especially since their European opponents will be\u00a0much smaller, less skilled and not as experienced in comparison to them. The Serbians went 2-3 in group play and are allowing 81.2 PPG during that stretch, which is more than the Aussies&#8217; own scoring average of 77.0 PPG.<\/p>\n<h3>Writer\u2019s Prediction<\/h3>\n<p>Australia wins and covers the <a href=\"http:\/\/topbet.eu\/sportsbook\/olympics\/basketball-women\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>-12<\/strong><\/a> spread.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/record.tbaffiliate.com\/_y8k7RB3Ll4xutv7iXV6HvmNd7ZgqdRLk\/9\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"broken_link\" rel=\"nofollow\"><strong>Create a betting account now<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0and start putting your basketball predictions to the test!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/record.tbaffiliate.com\/_y8k7RB3Ll4xutv7iXV6HvmNd7ZgqdRLk\/40\"><img class=\"size-full wp-image-111920 alignright\" src=\"http:\/\/topbet.eu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/620x110-250FREE-6-16-16.gif\" alt=\"620x110-250FREE-6-16-16\" width=\"620\" height=\"110\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"pvc_clear\"><\/div>\n<p class=\"pvc_stats all \" data-element-id=\"116581\" style=\"\"><i class=\"pvc-stats-icon medium\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" data-prefix=\"far\" data-icon=\"chart-bar\" role=\"img\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 512 512\" class=\"svg-inline--fa fa-chart-bar fa-w-16 fa-2x\"><path fill=\"currentColor\" d=\"M396.8 352h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8V108.8c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v230.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8zm-192 0h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8V140.8c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v198.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8zm96 0h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8V204.8c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v134.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8zM496 400H48V80c0-8.84-7.16-16-16-16H16C7.16 64 0 71.16 0 80v336c0 17.67 14.33 32 32 32h464c8.84 0 16-7.16 16-16v-16c0-8.84-7.16-16-16-16zm-387.2-48h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8v-70.4c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v70.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8z\" class=\"\"><\/path><\/svg><\/i> &nbsp;3,737&nbsp;total views, &nbsp;2&nbsp;views today<\/p>\n<div class=\"pvc_clear\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Serbia\u00a0vs. Australia Women\u2019s Basketball Preview Where:\u00a0Carioca Arena 1 \u2014 Rio de Janeiro, Brazil When:\u00a0Tuesday, August 16, 2016, 10:00 AM EST Line:\u00a0Serbia\u00a0(-12) vs. Australia\u00a0(+12); total:\u00a0156.0\u00a0\u2013\u00a0view all women&#8217;s Olympic basketball lines TV<\/p>\n<div class=\"pvc_clear\"><\/div>\n<p class=\"pvc_stats all \" data-element-id=\"116581\" style=\"\"><i class=\"pvc-stats-icon medium\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" data-prefix=\"far\" data-icon=\"chart-bar\" role=\"img\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 512 512\" class=\"svg-inline--fa fa-chart-bar fa-w-16 fa-2x\"><path fill=\"currentColor\" d=\"M396.8 352h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8V108.8c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v230.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8zm-192 0h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8V140.8c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v198.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8zm96 0h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8V204.8c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v134.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8zM496 400H48V80c0-8.84-7.16-16-16-16H16C7.16 64 0 71.16 0 80v336c0 17.67 14.33 32 32 32h464c8.84 0 16-7.16 16-16v-16c0-8.84-7.16-16-16-16zm-387.2-48h22.4c6.4 0 12.8-6.4 12.8-12.8v-70.4c0-6.4-6.4-12.8-12.8-12.8h-22.4c-6.4 0-12.8 6.4-12.8 12.8v70.4c0 6.4 6.4 12.8 12.8 12.8z\" class=\"\"><\/path><\/svg><\/i> &nbsp;3,737&nbsp;total views, &nbsp;2&nbsp;views today<\/p>\n<div class=\"pvc_clear\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"author":25,"featured_media":116595,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[15362,393,42],"tags":[16235,16236,16237,17051,841,2327,2442,17052,16659,16660,16661,16662,2171,17056,17057,17054,17055],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v16.4 -
