Their games on this tournament and the individual quality of the players are the reason for this pick. Belgium have more quality, they have shown better technical performance, they have a faster transition, they are physically stronger and they use every situation when their opponents are unorganized and slow in covering their defense, as was the case against Moldavia and Latvia are a team with a similar profile. Even though they have not had an official game in recent years, the Belgian players play in better organized Belgian clubs which often take part in European cups, two even play in German second division teams. Outside of this tournament, Belgium lost the preparation match against the Netherlands U-19 team but the same team belongs to Top 8 in Europe, while Latvia have lost twice against Lithuanian Žalgiris, by 28-46 and 31-38. I will go for the over on the margin of 48.5 goals, because the margin is based on Latvia's result against the Greeks as the Greeks won by 29-19. Belgium play a different type of handball, they push for a faster game with many goals from counters and semi-counters, as seen against Moldavia. They will go for goal today even more and the margin for this over is too low for their potential.
