MAL-W vs CAN-W Dream11 Prediction FIBA Live Mali Women vs Canada Women

MAL-W vs CAN-W Dream11: FIBA Women’s World Cup has already raeched the last stage of the Group Stage in what has been a rather fluid motion overall. Seven teams have qualified. From Group A, USA, China, and Belgium, the three favorites are through while the last spot is a knockout game between Puerto Rico and Korea. On the other hand, the slate is clear for Group B with Australia, France, Serbia, and Canada already having qualified. In this game, Canada will take on Mali.

Mali is yet to win a game and although their play has improved a bit, they still remain vulnerable. They lost to Serbia 68:81 despite another double-double by Sika Kone. Meanwhile, Canada finally came to ground after losing to hosts Australia 72:75 despite a 17 points effort by Nirra Fields. This game is basically a dead-rubber but the Candian team will like to enter the Quarter-Finals with a blowout win in their cap.

MAL-W vs CAN-W Dream11 FIBA WOMEN’S World CUp Projections, Stats & Analysis

Mali has been one of the worst offensive teams in the tournament. Apart from Kone and Djbiaye, the team has been able to identify options that can score in double-figures. Their defense is strong and so is their rebounding but they lack shot-creators that can answer big runs of the oppositions. Still, this would have been a wonderful learning experiences for teenager Maimouna Haidara whereas the same goes for 20-year old Sika Kone. Thus, this young team can be a big-time threat in the coming time.

Canada finally suffered a defeat against Australia but it was just by three points and they once again gave the opponents a lot of trouble. The team has identified different set of offensive players and they have built a deep scoring lineup. Nirra Fields has been amazing off the bench whereas Bridget Carleton is finding her stroke. With guards like Kia Nurse and Shay Colley, there is no shortage of shooters and the frontline of Achonwa, Alexander, and Amihere is a physical trioka.
