Japan has displayed outstanding discipline and stability in all four of their matches, setting them apart from Serbia, who have not performed well against stronger teams and have even dropped points when expected to lead. The key recommendation is to back Japan with a -1.5 sets handicap, given their consistency and Serbia's ongoing struggles.

Match Preview 


Japan continue their Nations League campaign carrying one of the best records in the competition and now face a Serbia side still searching for consistency. 

Japan Looking to Maintain Perfect Record 


Japan made it all the way to the semifinals in the previous edition of the Nations League before losing to Poland in the 3rd place decider, but their results in the ongoing season have been very encouraging as they share top spot in the standings with Brazil at 4-0. 

They justified the favorite tag in the opening round by beating France 3-1 in early June, followed by two more convincing performances against Ukraine 3-1 and Germany 3-0. 

Japan were properly challenged by Canada in their most recent outing, nearly throwing away a 2-0 lead before eventually securing a 3-2 victory and maintaining their unbeaten record. 

Serbia Struggling in Opening Rounds 


Serbia failed to play a major role in the Volleyball Nations League 2025, finishing in 15th place just a couple of spots above the relegation line, and the start of the new campaign has also been disappointing. 

They opened this edition in strong fashion with a dominant 3-0 victory over Thailand but then suffered back-to-back defeats against Poland 3-2 and China 3-0. 

Serbia were also heavy favorites in the previous round against Belgium, recovered from a 2-0 deficit to force a decider but eventually came up short and lost 3-2. 

Verdict

Serbia have struggled to impose themselves against stronger opposition and even dropped points in matches they were favorites. Japan have looked far more stable across all four matches, so backing the Asian side in a –1.5 sets handicap looks like the best option.
