Italy - This year's co-hosts won the first edition in 1938 on home soil. They used more players than anyone in the Qualifiers. In Matilde Villa they have a brilliant young gun, with Cecilia Zandalasini still capable of special things.
Lithuania - Champions back in 1997, Lithuania return to the event after a decade away. They showed their potential by almost toppling Belgium in the last qualifying window. They have big talent in Laura Juskaite and Juste Jocyte.
Serbia - They're chasing a third title in a decade, having won their maiden crown in 2015 and then again in 2021. With veteran guard Yvonne Anderson leading the way, do they still have enough for another title run?
Slovenia - The 2023 co-hosts will appear for a fifth straight edition, never missing since their debut in 2017. Fabulous in qualifying, they have a great captain in Teja Oblak, with Jessica Shepard and Eva Lisec tough under the hoop.
