The defending world water polo champions are the big favorites for the Rio Olympics, but the top challengers to each country are unclear. Prlainovic powered Serbia to the world title last August in Russia, winning the MVP award after scoring three times in an 11-4 victory over Croatia in the final. Serbia also was one of the favorites for London in 2012, but lost to Italy in the semifinals and settled for bronze.
