Olympic silver medalists and three-time World Grand Prix champions are considered the favourites to win their first ever gold medal at the Summer Games as they have crushed the opposition in recent years with a core of players who combine experience and skills.

In 34 contests between the two teams, USA leads 21-13 but the Americans have won the last four in a row, seven of eight, and eight of the past 10 against the Koreans.

The last three MVP players of the WGP – Foluke Akinradewo, Destinee Hooker and Megan Hodge – are included in this edition of the USA team to give an idea of how powerful this machine can be. They join the versatile Logan Tom, Linday Berg and a constellation of stars.

Watch Kim Yeon-Koung starring for Korea as arguably the best offensive player in today’s volleyball and American Danielle Scott-Arruda playing in her fifth Olympics.
