As part of one of the matches of the volleyball League of Nations, the players of the national teams of Brazil and Russia will come face to face. On whose side will the victory be in this confrontation?
Brazil
The Brazilian team is on the first line in the League of Nations. For 14 matches, this team lost only once. It was at the beginning of the tournament, when the South Americans unexpectedly lost in three sets to France (0: 3). Since then, the team has not made misfires and regularly scored points, winning along the way. In the last meeting, "selesao" managed to defeat the German national team with a score of 3: 0, showing the opponent their true level of play and brilliant strategic power.
Russia
The Russian national team drove itself into a corner, losing in those meetings where, in fact,it should have scored points and won. For example, this was the case in the match with Slovenia, where the team led during the match, but the opponent moved the game to a tie-break and pushed his opponent. At the moment, the Russians are on the 5th line in the standings, with 31 points to their credit. The gap to France, which is fourth, is only one point, which can be won back in the event of a loss of points by an opponent in a duel with Poland.
Statistics and figures:
- The opponents have an equal chance of winning;
- Both opponents have 5 wins in their 5 meetings;
- The last face-to-face meeting between the rivals ended with a score of 3: 0 in favor of Brazil;
- The Russians won only once in 5 games with Brazil.
