Serbia bid to get the win that will take them into the United Cup quarter finals. The Serbs take on the Czech Republic in Group E and for both countries this is their second and final group fixture. Only the group winners are guaranteed a place in the last eight but the best second placed team in each of the cities hosting the groups will also go through. China top the group after their two games with a win and loss. Serbia are in second place after their one tie so far saw them get a 2-1 win over the Chinese team. Novak Djokovic comfortably won his singles match and only dropped five games. However, Olga Danilovic lost her singles match but teamed up with Djokovic to get the win in the deciding mixed doubles.

The Czech Republic have also played China but had a disappointing 3-0 loss to China leaving them with it all to do against Serbia. Both Marketa Vondrousova and Jiri Lehecka lost their singles matches. They then teamed up and lost the mixed doubles, winning just three games. Now they take on Serbia and it again looks a tough match for them. Lehecka will take on Djokovic in the men's singles and it's hard to see anything but a win for the world number one. Danilovic v Vondrousova will be a lot closer and the Wimbledon champion may well be able to level the scores. If it comes down to the mixed doubles we prefer the Serbs to get a win and qualify for the quarter finals and eliminate the Czechs.
