Serbia in focus: Basketball giants meet Germany in the Supercup!

In a few weeks the **Turkish Airlines Supercup 2025** will be held in picturesque Limassol on Cyprus. Basketball fans can look forward to an exciting tournament in which strong teams from Europe will duel. The game plan has already been fixed and the anticipation couldn't be greater. How on basketball-bund.de As can be read, Serbia, the Czech Republic and Türkiye are on the list of participants, and all three nations have a lot of basketball history with them.

Serbia, as vice world champions and medal-winning Olympians, has already impressed in their EuroBasket preparations. With four wins in a total of four test matches, they have every reason to be happy. Coached by Svetislav Pesic, players like Nikola Jokic from the Denver Nuggets and Bogdan Bogdanovic from the Los Angeles Clippers excel. Particular highlights were the confident victories against Bosnia (126:89) and Poland (79:67) as well as an impressive 76:66 win against Greece, in which Jokic shone with 23 points, 19 rebounds and 4 assists. The German national team has not had an easy time against the Serbs in the past and has only managed to win eight times in 48 matches and has managed to do so three out of the last five meetings.

The challengers: the Czech Republic and Turkey

The Czech Republic, on the other hand, is still struggling with its form. The Czechs lost out in two test matches against the Spanish A and B teams. With a win from two matches - a 75:80 against the B team and a 73:87 against the A team - they face the challenge of convincing in Limassol. Germany, on the other hand, has an impressive record against the Czech Republic in history: Germany won seven of eight encounters.

Turkey is considered the “secret favorite”, but has to prove itself after a defeat against Lithuania (70:91). With stars like Cedi Osman and Furkan Korkmaz, the team is still dangerous, even if they only have one official test match this summer.
