Canada vs Australia Prediction Summer Olympics Picks 7/30/24

Canada and Australia meet Tuesday in the 2024 Summer Olympics at Pierre Mauroy Stadium. Here’s a Canada vs Australia Prediction. This article will include a Canada vs Australia Pick.

Canada Betting Preview

The Canadian National team is talented, and they believe they can compete for a medal with all the talent they have on the team. In the first game of the Summer Olympics, Canada faced off against Greece, and they were able to secure the 86-79 victory. At the end of the first quarter, Canada was up 26-22, and they didn’t look back on the way to the victory. RJ Barrett was the top play for Canada, putting up 23 points while hitting 8 of his 13 shots from the field. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander also was dynamic, putting up 21 points while hitting 2 of his 3 shots from deep. Even though they found some success, they need more production from the bench. Jamal Murray came off the bench, but only scored eight points. Hey need the bench to have a big game here. 

Australia Betting Preview

Australia faced off against Spain in the first game of the Olympics, and they were able to secure the 92-80 victory. At the end of the first quarter, they were up 31-21, and they continued to find success the rest of the game. Australia’s offense was sure impressive and four of the five starters put up 13 points, and the lowest scoring starter still had eight points. Jock Landale had a strong game, putting up 20 points while hitting 9 of his 14 shots from deep. The bench only had 15 total points, and 13 of those points came from Jack McVeigh. Much like Canada, if Australia wants to find success, they are going to need more production from the bench. 

Canada vs Australia Production

Both of these teams found success in the first game, but in this game, I expect it’s going to be Canada that is going to find success. This Australian team is talented, but they aren’t as deep, and that is going to really let them down. Canada is going to have no issue running up the score here, and the bench is going to have plenty of production also. Australia won’t be keeping up. Back Canada against the spread here.
