Canada and Libya will face off in their opening match of the preliminary round at the FIVB World Championships on Thursday at the Araneta Coliseum. Japan and Turkey join Team Canada and Libya in Pool G. Let’s get into the match prediction.
Canada will be featuring in their 10th consecutive World Championships this year and will be aiming for a better performance than in 2022, when they finished in 17th place.
The North American representatives are ranked 11th according to FIVB World Rankings. They enter this tournament following a third-place finish at the Pan-American Volleyball Cup at the start of the month.
During the Pan-American Volleyball Cup, Canada won two of their final three games without dropping a set, while their only loss in the competition came against Mexico.
Meanwhile, Libya will be making their second-ever appearance at the World Championships, with their only previous campaign coming over four decades ago in 1982.
They qualified for the competition by claiming third place in the 2023 African Championship - their best finish at the tournament ever - only behind champions Egypt and runners-up Algeria.
However, ranked 75th globally, Libya are expected to find it tough to get out of this Pool, given that the other three sides are all ranked inside the top 20.

Our Canada vs Libya Prediction
Despite not being the lowest-ranked team at this year’s competition, most bookmakers have installed Libya as the biggest outsider to win the 2025 FIVB World Championships, largely due to their draw.
The African nation is pooled alongside three teams that are ranked inside the top 20, and they failed to win any of their three warm-up matches against Tunisia in the lead-up to this competition. We’re expecting Canada to secure a commanding victory in this match. Our Canada vs Libya prediction is Canada wins 3-0.
