Arguably, the headline matchup on Friday at the 2026 Volleyball Nations League will see Germany taking on the USA. Team USA are on a seven-match win streak, and our prediction is that they will get the better of Die Adler in this one.
Germany secured an against-the-odds victory in their opening match of the 2026 VNL over Canada, but they were unable to follow up against Italy last night, losing their second game 3-1.
Tobias Brand has led the Eagles' attack in this competition, now on 36 points (33 attack points), which places him fifth in the leading scorer standings. Filip Jöhn has 30 points (29 attack points).
Germany have now lost six of their last 10 matches in all competitions, but they beat this opponent 3-2 in this tournament last year.
Meanwhile, the USA returned for their backers in their opening match of the 2026 VNL, making fairly light work of Türkiye to secure a 3-1 victory on Wednesday evening.
Jake Hanes made an impressive start to the tournament, scoring 21 points against the Turks, while Matthew Anderson and Jeffrey Jendryk II combined for 26 points, including four blocks.
The USA have won eight of their last 10 matches. While they were beaten last year by this opponent, they did win five in a row against Germany before that defeat.

Germany pulled off a very impressive victory over Canada in their opening match, but they were unable to follow up against Italy, and they now have to face fourth-ranked USA in their third match in as many days.
The USA will not have forgotten that defeat against Die Adler last year and will be out for revenge here. Last year’s runners-up are riding a seven-match win streak and have had a full day’s rest, which sees us backing them to get the W in this one. Our Germany vs USA prediction is USA wins.
