The USA and Cuba will lock horns in a high-stakes game in Pool D of the FIVB Men's World Championship on Wednesday evening. The Americans, who are making their 18th appearance in this event, are the favorites to top the group. They started their campaign brightly with a dominant 3-0 win over Colombia at the SM Mall of Asia Arena. Team USA can solidify its top spot in the group with a win against Portugal on Monday before taking on Cuba.
Cuban, meanwhile, was stunned by Portugal in their opening game. The No. 11-ranked Cubans were outplayed by the Europeans, who rallied from a set down to win three sets on the bounce. However, they can take a few positives from the game, having matched their opponents in the number of successful spikes (48). They also outdid Portugal from the serving line. Still, they'll be under pressure to defeat Colombia and the USA to advance.

Our USA vs Cuba Prediction
The USA will be eager to win all their group stage matches and head into the knockout rounds in red-hot form. Luckily for the USA, history favors them against the Cubans. They won five of their last seven meetings with their Caribbean rivals. Interestingly, those wins were in their previous five meetings. However, the Americans cannot afford to underestimate the Cubans. Cuba has a wealth of talent, led by captain Miguel Lopez, who notched 11 points against Portugal. Jose Masso was also impressive against the Portuguese, producing 12 points. They could help the Cubans compete really well against the USA. Still, we expect the USA to grab the win.
Our prediction for the USA vs Cuba: Over 3.5 sets.
