Live volleyball VNL 2023 today 20/7: Quarterfinals Japan vs Slovenia; Poland vs Brazil

At the 2023 VNL volleyball tournament, Japan showed positive changes in gameplay, thereby achieving an unbeaten record for a long time in the group stage. However, Ran Takahashi and his teammates will still have to be extremely cautious when entering the final round, because this is the time when European teams unleash their strength and launch the strongest squad.

Slovenia has also made remarkable progress compared to VNL 2022 when achieving a position in the Top 8. However, this team will be the most suitable opponent for Japan to reach the semi-finals of VNL 2023 for the first time.

The other match will be an extremely unpredictable battle between Poland and Brazil. Both have the world's top stars who can shine and lead their teams to victory.

According to VNL's format, the 4 quarter-final matches are determined based on the rankings of the teams in the group stage. The 1st team meets the 8th, 2 vs 7, 3 vs 6 and 4 vs 5 respectively. The final round of VNL 2023 is the pinnacle playground where the teams must focus all their attention. There are no more opportunities to correct mistakes like the group stage, when the matches enter the harsh knockout format.
