LiontipsChina vs ROC. Prediction and Betting Tips for Olympic Games Tokyo 2020 (July 29, 2021).
Command Analysis
China women's national team cannot yet boast of any particular success at the Olympics. In the two starting matches, they were unable to stop the Americans and the Turkish, losing both games in three straight sets. There is still a chance to fix their tournament position, but they must win the next match to reach the playoffs.
Russia suffered a devastating defeat from the Italians (23: 25,19: 25,14: 25), but in the second round, they beat the Argentinian team in three sets (25:19, 25:15, 25:13). The match against China should show in what form the Russians are and the chances for their successful performance at the tournament.

Tip and bets
The first matches of these teams showed, that both China and Russia are ready to fight. We think that Russia will objectively struggle in this upcoming game, but they should be able to maintain the positive handicap offered by bookmakers.
Our prediction - Asian handicap (+17,5) to ROC
We expect a tough match, but it is unlikely that many sets will be played: probably just three, at most four. This is why it makes sense to bet on total under. This bet will play if the match ends in three close sets.
Second wager - total under 163.5 points
