Well, my prediction is  and  will fight for the very important second place in the group after France. That normally means a clash with a Scandinavian country in the quarterfinals (most likely  or  ). In that perspective this isn't the best draw for us. But otherwise: there are no weak opponents in the quarters of an Olympic Games.

 

Group A seems a bit stronger with the three Scandinavian powerhouses. Don't know what to say about  . They played a very good OQT, but we destroyed them at the last Worlds. There's a good chance for them to reach the quarterfinals (  and  are weaker). 

 

I really looking forward to the handball tournament in Paris/Lille. Only 100 days wait ...

Not yet. And I didn't hear anything about when the schedule will be released! But normally the IHF is fast with it.

I hope they place  vs  @ 9 p.m. on day #-1

 

and I'd also like a couple of good (close) matches in the morning session of day #-1, just to start my watching marathon on a high note

I believe it took them about a month in both 2021 and 2016
