Paul-Henri Mathieu before the France-Brazil Davis Cup: Take this match very seriously.

Next week in Orléans, France take on Brazil in the Davis Cup.

In their first home match in the competition since 2022, Paul-Henri Mathieu's Bleus take on Brazil.

Speaking to the competition's official website, the French team captain talks about his choices, and is wary of his opponent.

"Ugo Humbert, Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard and Arthur Fils had a great 2024 season, they're the three highest-ranked French players, so it was a logical choice.

After his long injury, Pierre-Hugues Herbert is making a good comeback in singles and is also devoting himself to doubles. It's important for me to have this experience in the team.

On paper, we're favourites, but we'll have to take this match very seriously. They have talented players like João Fonseca, who has just won the Next Gen ATP Finals.

Thiago Seyboth Wild is also a very dangerous player. They also have an experienced doubles player in Marcelo Melo.

We're delighted to be playing in front of our fans. It feels good to be at home again. It's also positive because it allows us to promote our sport," said the former world No. 12 in 2008.
