If Slovenia had beaten France in one game out of three, we would not see N'Gapeth in Tokyo. In general, the relationship between these teams is not simple, and on Sunday their showdown will continue.

The French in their opening match beat Germany in three games, but suffered a lot. Moreover, Andrea Giani's wards were even worse in points earned by offense but they made fewer mistakes, won 8:3 on the block and were better in aces - 6:2. By the way, the Olympic champions lost their serve more often - 18:16.
Slovenia
The Slovenians faced a much less formidable opponent in Cameroon in the first round, but we can't say that Cretu's men blew the Africans out. They struggled, giving 19-23 points in each game. In addition, Slovenia was 6:7 behind in blocks but better in aces (6:4) and serve faults (8:15).
Toncek Stern and Urnaut played well offensively - both had over 50 percent realization. Cebulj was way behind, scoring eight of his 23 - nowhere near good. The French, however, had a similar picture - N'Gapeth and Clevenot were fine, and Patry had less than 40 percent of realized attacks. But France also had a much tougher opponent.
Expert Betting Tips
So, the Slovenians already have three points, but they're not guaranteed to leave the group, especially with such a goal difference - Cameroon has scored too much. Of course, the French also need points, although, having taken first place in the group, they can meet either Cuba or Argentina at the last 16. In general, there is hope that both teams will play seriously, and not just France, especially since it would be awkward to play any other way in front of their fans. It is well known that the Slovenians in Ljubljana often catch the courage and perform miracles.
