Teams Preview
Hungary
Hungary return to the FIBA Women’s Basketball World Cup for the first time since 1998, entering Berlin ranked 19th in the world. Despite their long absence, they showed genuine quality during qualifying in Istanbul, finishing 3-2 and securing impressive wins over Japan and Turkiye.
Hungary’s qualifying campaign highlighted their ability to compete against stronger ranked opponents. They opened with a 77-65 victory over Japan before defeating Argentina 92-81 and producing their biggest statement by beating Turkiye 89-74. Dorka Juhasz was outstanding against Turkiye, recording 24 points, while Hungary shot 52% from the field and 50% from three point range.
Juhasz will be central to Hungary’s hopes, providing size, scoring and rebounding inside, while Reka Lelik adds another important offensive option.
Hungary must defend without fouling, control the boards and convert efficiently from outside. Their confidence and recent giant killing form make them capable of making France work for every possession.
France
France enter their FIBA Women’s Basketball World Cup 2026 opener against Hungary as one of the tournament’s leading contenders. Ranked No.2 in the world, Les Bleues are targeting a first World Cup medal since 1953 and arrive with a deep, talented roster. France’s combination of experience, athleticism and emerging young talent are their major strengths.
France’s frontcourt could be decisive, with Dominique Malonga providing athleticism, size and defensive versatility.
France needs to stay disciplined and avoid allowing Hungary’s confidence to grow. Their superior depth, athleticism and defensive pressure should give them control, while efficient perimeter shooting will be important against Hungary’s physical defense. The recent head-to-head record favors France 5-1, including an 82-68 win in the EuroBasket 2023 third-place game.
