Hungary face Japan on September 8th in a crucial World Cup qualification to quarter-finals clash. Hungary’s size, rebounding and Dorka Juhasz’s interior presence provide a major advantage, while Japan will rely on pace, ball movement and three point shooting.

 If Japan’s perimeter offense clicks, they can challenge Hungary, but the Hungarians’ physicality should give them the edge.

Both teams have yet to play against each other.
