The FIVB Women's Volleyball Nations League 2026 continues on July 12 with a single, high-stakes showdown in Belgrade, Serbia, as the host nation takes on Germany in a fixture packed with recent history and competing momentum.
Serbia vs Germany (01:00, Belgrade, Serbia):
Serbia and Germany renew their rivalry in Belgrade after a series of closely contested encounters across tournaments in recent years. Germany claimed a 3-1 victory in their most recent women's meeting at the 2025 Nations League, though the head-to-head history also includes matches from the men's side, where Germany won both a 2025 Nations League clash and a 2024 edition in straight sets. Serbia enter this fixture off a gritty 2-3 loss to France on July 10, a result that followed a commanding 3-0 sweep of Bulgaria the day before, while Germany arrive after a 3-1 win over Czechia in their most recent women's match on July 8, though their last men's outing on June 28 ended in a 1-3 defeat to China.
