France/Australia: A decisive encounter?
After a comfortable victory over Taiwan in the qualifying round in November, the French team will now be looking to secure its ticket to the Davis Cup finals.
To do so, Les Bleus will have to extricate themselves from a tough group. Alongside the Spanish ogre, they will also have to watch out for the Czechs and, above all, the Australians.
The first group match, scheduled for Tuesday against Australia, is already shaping up as a decisive duel for second place.
Despite being without Alex De Minaur, the Australians remain a dangerous team.
With Alexei Popyrin in the form of his life and a doubles pairing comprising the world's No. 5 and No. 8 players, France will have no room for error.
Can France, led by Ugo Humbert and Arthur Fils, kick off their group phase with a fine win?
Find out this Tuesday from 4pm!
