Turkiye and Iran will meet in the 2026 Volleyball Nations League on Sunday. Turkiye beat this opponent in their only previous encounter, and our prediction is that they will do so again in this clash.
Turkiye come into this match off the back of a 3-1 loss to Slovenia. However, they are still sat in seventh place and a win here will secure their place in the final round of this competition.
Adis Lagumdzija scored 27 of the team's 91 points in that defeat to Slovenia. He is now on 196 points, including 21 block points, and is fourth in the leading tournament’s leading scorer standings.

Meanwhile, Iran also suffered defeat to Slovenia (3-0) in their last match. They are now down in 14th place in the standings and all but certain to miss out on a spot in the final round of the competition.
Ali Hajipour has been the team’s best player throughout the 2026 VNL. He has 168 points, including 20 blocks, and is eighth in the tournament’s leading scorer standings after 11 games.
