Spain 

Spain already played 4 games in preparation for World Cup, won 3. However, the only loss was to the USA, other teams were Ivory Coast and the Dominican Republic. It wasn’t difficult matches, but victory against Lithuania was more promising about Spain’s current form. The team still has the main leaders like: Fernandez, Rubio, Gasol M., Llull, Claver, these are experienced players and they will be coached by experienced coach- Sergio Scariolo. Like every time Spain will be among title contenders, and not without the reason, this team is dangerous everywhere. Under the rim, from 3 point range, they can play slow and fast basketball. 

Argentina 

Argentina has already played 11 games this summer, some of them were friendly, some of the local cups, however, the results are not bad, only 3 losses, so it is safe to say, that this team is already prepared for World Cup, it will be interesting to watch how this team will show its potential, because there are only a few more experienced players, like legendary Luis Scola, Campazzo, Laprovittola. Of course, they will be team leaders, but this is the chance for young players to show their skills. However, it will be difficult to show something very impressive against a more experienced team like Spain, but this is an only friendly match, so everyone can try to show their best.
