World No.7 Argentina will take on Japan in the 2022 FIVB Volleyball Men’s Nations League Round 1 clash on Monday. The Argentine side will have their task cut out in the match as Japan have displayed their dominance so far in the season. Argentina are in the 12th spot with a solitary win and three losses from their four matches while the Japanese men are in the second spot with three wins from four games. 

Argentina started their campaign with a straight set defeat to Poland before bouncing back to outclass Germany (3-1). The Argentine side, later, registered two consecutive losses — Serbia (2-3) and Italy (1-3) — and will be eager to get their season back on track against Japan. 

Japan, meanwhile, started their season on a high with 3-1 margin victories over the Netherlands and China. Their first and only loss of the season so far came against the heavyweights USA (2-3). Japan, then, outclassed Iran in straight sets in their previous match of Round 1.
