LOTTO Chemik Police v DevelopRes Rzeszow
Poland – women’s TAURON Liga
11/06/2026, Friday, 16:30 UTC (17:30 local time)

LOTTO Chemik Police host DevelopRes Rzeszow in the big match of the sixth leg of Poland’s TAURON Liga Kobiet regular season. The game on Friday will be played at the Enea Arena in Szczecin. Chemik made a perfect start to the season, with four consecutive wins, before conceding their first loss - at LKS Commercecon Lodz last Friday. On 11 points and a 4-1 win-loss record, star outside hitter Natalia Medrzyk and her teammates are holding fourth place in the current standings. Meanwhile, DevelopRes, featuring international stars like Julita Piasecka, Netherlands’ Marrit Jasper and Laura Jansen, or USA’s Taylor Mims, remain the only undefeated team in the Polish league this season, leading the table on 14 and 5-0. The club from Rzeszow has won the last six encounters with Chemik, but the all-time TAURON League head-to-head record still stands at 24-18 the way of the club from Police.

Osaka Marvelous v Saga Hisamitsu Springs
Japan – women’s Daido Life SV.League
11/07/2026, Saturday, 04:05 UTC (13:05 local time)
11/08/2026, Sunday, 04:05 UTC (13:05 local time)

The upcoming titanic clash between runners-up Osaka Marvelous and defending champions Saga Hisamitsu Springs is a remake of last season’s women’s Daido Life SV.League final in Japan, and since Osaka are also the holders of the Empress Cup trophy, in a way, this duel could be viewed as a “super cup” contest. This weekend’s double header at the Baycom General Gymnasium in Amagasaki is also a meeting between the top two teams in the current Western Conference standings. Marvelous, with Kotona Hayashi, Hanna Orthmann and Brionne Butler on the squad, are running second on a 5-1 win-loss ratio and 14 points, while Ayaka Araki and her Hisamitsu Springs teammates stand on top of the table on 6-0 and 16 as the only undefeated team in the entire league. Last season, Osaka and Saga met four times in the SV.League. Hisamitsu Springs won the three most recent encounters, including the two in the title showdown.

Wolfdogs Nagoya v JTEKT Stings Aichi
Japan – men’s Daido Life SV.League
11/07/2026, Saturday, 05:35 UTC (14:35 local time)
11/08/2026, Sunday, 04:35 UTC (13:35 local time)

Wolfdogs Nagoya and JTEKT Stings Aichi are set to offer a remake of the men’s Daido Life SV.League bronze medal playoff this spring as they go head to head this weekend at the Entrio. This season, French opposite Stephen Boyer’s Aichi remain the only unbeaten team in the league, leading the standings on a 4-0 win-loss ratio and 12 points, while Nagoya, also featuring a French star in the lineup – libero Jenia Grebennikov – stand fourth on 3-1 and 8. JTEKT Stings triumphed in all four meetings with Wolfdogs last SV.League season, but both games of the third-place playoff were resolved in tie-breaker sets.

Itas Trentino Trento v Sir Susa Scai Perugia
Italy – men’s SuperLega Credem Banca
11/08/2026, Sunday, 17:00 UTC (18:00 local time)

The program of the fifth leg in the Italian men’s SuperLega Credem Banca regular season is highlighted by a clash of giants Itas Trentino Trento and Sir Susa Scai Perugia, set to be played on Sunday at the BTS Arena in Trento. One of the two stellar teams is about to feel the taste of its first loss of the season, as Sir lead the standings on 14 points and a 5-0 win-loss record, while Trentino are in third place on 11 and 4-0. Trentino’s roster features the likes of Riccardo Sbertoli, Theo Faure, Alessandro Michieletto, Daniele Lavia, Flavio Gualberto, Aleksandar Nedeljkovic and Gabriele Laurenzano, while that of reigning world, continental and national champions Sir impresses with players like Simone Giannelli, Ferre Reggers, Oleh Plotnytskyi, Kamil Semeniuk, Sebastian Sole and Agustin Loser, among others. Last season, the two sides traded four-set home victories in the SuperLega, but when it came down to their Italy Super Cup semifinal encounter, the team from Perugia produced a straight-set win. However, the overall head-to-head record between the two clubs stands at 33-27 the way of the Trento side.

Jastrzebie Barkom Lviv v PGE Projekt Warsaw
Poland – men’s TAURON Liga
11/08/2026, Sunday, 19:30 UTC (20:30 local time)

The only foreign team in Poland’s TAURON Liga – Ukraine’s Jastrzebie Barkom Lviv – is having a good start to the season so far. While they were used to being closer to the bottom of the table in the previous seasons and often under the threat of relegation, now, strengthened by the addition of several Polish players and spearheaded by opposite Adam Lorenc, they are in the top half, occupying sixth place on 6 points and a 2-1 win-loss record. Their next opponents – PGE Projekt Warsaw featuring Yuri Romano, Aleksander Sliwka, Bartosz Bednorz, Kevin Tillie, Bartlomiej Lemanski, Karol Klos, Yurii Semeniuk and Damian Wojtaszek, among others – are currently just above them, fifth on 7 and 2-2, but they may further improve before Sunday’s fifth-leg game in Jastrzebie Zdroj, as they have their fourth-leg fixture coming up before that, on Thursday evening. Last season, Barkom surprised Projekt in both league games they played as these were the first wins they had ever achieved against this opponent in the league. All of the previous six head-to-head encounters were won by the club from Warsaw.

Galatasaray, with Stephen Maar, Efe Mandiraci and Micah Maa leading the squad, stand fourth on 3-1 and 9. The two clubs have met only twice at the elite level. In last season’s league encounters, Galatasaray beat Gebze by 3-2 at home and by 3-0 on the road.
