The final match on Friday at the 2026 FIVB Volleyball Nations League will see Serbia facing off against Cuba.     Los Leones have not won a match in this competition to date, and our prediction is that they will not be able to change that record in this clash. 

Serbia had a solid opening week in the 2026 VNL, beating Argentina, Belgium and Bulgaria, but they kicked off Week 2 disappointingly, losing to high-flying Japan 3-1 on Wednesday evening. 

Veljko Masulović once again led the team in points in the last match with 16. He now has 72 points in the tournament, but his most impressive feat is maintaining a 43.17% efficiency on attack. 

Serbia are one spot off the final round qualification zone. They have won four of their last 10 matches in all competitions and four of their last five against this opponent. 

Meanwhile, Cuba has endured a dismal 2026 VNL campaign to date. After losing to the USA and France on Wednesday and Thursday, they are now the only team yet to win a match in the competition. 

Los Leones’ struggles are underlined when looking at the player stats. Their top scorer in this year's competition is Alejandro González on 49 points, which ranks 31st in the leading scorer standings. 

Cuba are rooted to the bottom of the table and are now riding a seven-match losing streak. However, they did beat this opponent 3-1 in this competition last year.
