Over the years, the United States has qualified for the final round in the FIVB Volleyball Men’s Nations League in four of the previous six years. It has never climbed the mountain to win the tournament, but has three runner-up finishes and a third place finish.

China has played in this tournament five times, including this year, and is set to make its first final round as the host country is an automatic qualifier. The country is moving on regardless of its record in pool play.

All matches in Pool 5 take place in Illinois, giving the United States the home country advantage and the opportunity to qualify for the final round.
