The round of 16 at the 2025 FIVB Volleyball World Championship is here, and kicking off the action is Turkey taking on the Netherlands on Saturday. The winner of this match between Filenin Efeleri and Oranje will face either Poland or Canada in the quarter-finals. Let’s get into the match prediction.
Turkey bowed out of this competition at this very stage back in 2022. If they win this match, they will be guaranteed their best-ever finish at the World Championships.
Filenin Efeleri was the pick of the teams in the group stage, finishing top of Group G with a perfect three wins in three matches, while only dropping one set during that period.
In their last match, Turkey stunned Canada 3-0, with Adis Lagumdzija leading the scoring for the team with 15 points, all of which came from attacks.
Meanwhile, the Netherlands are now into the knockouts of this competition for a third edition in a row, maintaining their record of reaching the last 16 in every WC they’ve featured in.
Oranje won two of their three games during the group stage, beating Qatar 3-1 and Romania 3-0, while their only defeat was against tournament favourites Poland in midweek.
Notably, Michiel Ahyi scored a stunning 23 points against the Poles, which took his tally in this World Championship to 61 - fourth-most of any player to date.

Our Turkiye vs Netherlands Prediction
Turkey have been sensational in this competition and have earned their place in the last 16 despite being installed as the underdog most of the way, including in this next match.
The Netherlands have also been impressive and losing to the number one seeds, Poland, is certainly not the worst result ever. Given how these sides have fared so far in the competition, we’re expecting a genuine battle that could go the distance. Our Turkey vs Netherlands prediction is over 170.5 points.
