As part of the match of the men's Volleyball League of Nations, the players of the national teams of France and Slovenia will come face to face. Which side will win this match? Our sports portal evaluates the chances of success of teams.
France
The French national team, even in the absence of several leaders, is a contender for victory in any match in which it participates. It is also worth noting the fact that the "tricolor" are the current winner of the tournament, because last year they were able to defeat the USA in a decisive tiebreak (3:2). But at the World Cup, it was not possible to prove their claims to gold awards, because the team lost to Italy in the same fifth game – 2:3 already at the quarterfinal stage. In the first match of the tournament, France lost to Poland with a score of 1:3, but in the second game it was stronger than China (3:1).
Slovenia
Slovenians have not shown the same game recently that they demonstrated 2-3 years ago. At the last League of Nations, the team of nominal guests completely failed, failing to reach the playoffs. And at the Volleyball World Championship in August – September last year, although she reached the semifinals, she still remained without medals. Having lost in the semifinal meeting to Italy (0:3), Slovenia lost in the bronze medal match to Brazil (1:3), having almost no chance of success. In the opening tournament of the League of Nations, Slovenia defeated Serbia in the first game (3:1), but then lost to Bulgaria (0:3).

- "Tricolor" have 3 wins in 5 games;
