Australia vs Argentina Odds and Predictions: Preview

The Australians were seemingly expecting an easier competition in the quarter-finals after finishing at the top of their group. The unbeaten Boomers discovered their opponents on Sunday night via the newly introduced draw system. The Australians sealed their spot in the first pot only to find out that Germany and Italy have also secured places in the quarter-final. As they couldn’t have been drawn against a country from their group, the Australians were left with two options- either Spain or Argentina.

However, Argentina seemed like the best option amongst the two. The Argentines finished third in Group C behind Slovenia and Spain. Adding to that, the Australians have got the better of Argentina last month, courtesy of Patty Mills’ last-minute heroics in a Las Vegas warm-up game. As for the other teams, France will play Italy, while Slovenia drew Germany.
