At 2:30 p.m., the men's volleyball team of Bulgaria and Portugal will play. In Group D, Portugal created a shock when they won the ticket to the next round from one of the strong forces, Cuba.

Portugal even won a 3-1 victory when facing this opponent. In the end, they only lost to the US team in the group stage. The ticket to the next round of the European representative brought many surprises but was completely deserved.

In Group E, Bulgaria showed "destructive" form when winning all 3 matches to take the top spot. In this match, Bulgaria is rated higher as it is ranked 13th in the world. Although not among the strongest teams in the world, the Bulgarian men's volleyball team has maintained stability over the years and has hardly fallen out of the top 20.

Meanwhile, Portugal is ranked 22nd in the world. They have never been highly rated in men's volleyball. But in this year's tournament, many shocks have been created. Therefore, Portugal has the right to believe and hope.

At 7pm, the world's fourth-ranked team, the United States, will face sixth-ranked Slovenia. Just by looking at the rankings of the two teams, you can see how exciting this match is.

The last time the two teams met was in June of this year, in the Volleyball Nations League. Slovenia won that day. This result could be repeated at the 2025 Men's Volleyball World Championship, although the US has been more consistent in the group stage.

* The competition schedule may change depending on the arrangement of the tournament organizer.
