It will be the weekend of January 31 and February 1 and 2. The tie will be divided into two days: on the first, two singles will be played and on the second, two more singles and one more doubles in case it is necessary to break the tie.

If Spain wins as a visitor, it will face the winner of the series between Denmark and Serbia in the second round – in Septemberin which the Danes will play at home. The presence of Novak Djokovic cannot be ruled out, as he has made it clear on several occasions that right now what motivates him are the Grand Slam and playing for his country.
