Week 1 action at the 2026 Volleyball Nations League continues on Friday night with Belgium facing off against Serbia. The Eagles have won their last five matches against this opponent, and we are going with them to extend that record over the Red Dragons as our match prediction.
Belgium have experienced a mixed start to their Nations League debut, kicking off their campaign with a 3-1 victory over Bulgaria before falling to Brazil by the same scoreline yesterday.
Pierre Perin has been the most effective player for the Red Dragons in this competition, currently on 29 points, including five off serves. Ferre Reggers has 28 points after his two games.
Belgium have won six of their last 10 matches in all competitions, but have not beaten their upcoming opponent since the World League in 2017.
Meanwhile, Serbia got their VNL Week 1 underway positively, proving too strong for Argentina as they emerged with a 3-1 victory from their opening match on Wednesday evening.
Veljko Masulovic was the Eagles’ standout performer in their first match, notching up 19 points (16 attack points). Lazar Marinovic picked up 13 points, including two blocks.
That victory ended Serbia’s four-match losing streak in friendlies leading up to this tournament. Each of the last two matches between these sides ended with 3-1 scorelines.

Our Belgium vs Serbia Prediction
Belgium have been one of the most improved teams in Europe over the past couple of years, but they were no match for Brazil yesterday and now face another stern test in the form of higher-ranked Serbia.
The Eagles’ preparation for this tournament raised a few concerns, but they largely put those to bed with an impressive victory over Argentina in midweek. Given their record in this fixture and having a rest advantage, we fancy Serbia to get the win in this one. Our Belgium vs Serbia prediction is Serbia wins.
