The Fed Cup is one of the events dedicated to women’s tennis in the tournament established in 1963. It features eight teams taking part in the World Group. It is regarded as the Davis Cup, which is an all men’s tournament for national teams, equivalent. Purely in terms of nations that compete, the Fed Cup is regarded as one of the top tennis tournaments. The Fed Cup final 2016 will be completed between the Czech Republic and France on November 12-13.

Key Details

After having won the title an incredible nine times in the history of the tournament, it is not surprising that the Czech Republic are the overwhelming favourites for a win according to the Fed Cup final odds. France have been crowned as champions before, but not in recent memory. Their last titles came in the 1997 and 2003 editions, while they finished runners-up in two seasons (2004 and 2005) after these wins.

The Czech Republic, on the other hand, are extremely strong even in terms of recent history. One has to go back to 1975 for their first Fed Cup title, but the most recent came in the last edition. In fact, they have been the champions of the Fed Cup for the last two editions.

Favourites

Fed Cup final bets may be predominantly in favour of Czech Republic, but France do have the element of a surprise about them. They have managed to beat Netherlands and, last year’s finalists, Russia along the way to the final. Bookmakers know very well that any team that manages to reach the final of the competition cannot be discounted from the best odds.

The game being played at Strasbourg in France does give France the home team a small edge. The advantage of a home support is quickly taken away once the playing surface is taken into account. The Czech Republic enjoy playing on the indoor hard courts, which is set to host the 2016 Fed Cup final. This will be a major element in favour of the reigning champions, according to Fed Cup final tips.

Karolina Pliskova has managed to take part in a very game for the Czech Republic team and she will be joined by Petra Kvitova, who is in excellent form after having just returned from an injury. Barbora Strycova is another member of the team who is in fine nick.

Kristina Mladenovic and Caroline Garcia are the key players for the French team according to tennis online betting tips.

Discussion

France qualified for their fifth Fed Cup final after defeating the extremely unpredictable team of Holland in the doubles rubber: 3-2. All the matches (doubles and singles) that France played this year were played by Caroline Garcia and Kristina Mladenovic.

The Czech Republic's team looks to be the favourite here - its 10th Fed Cup title in history and the third in the row. When discussing doubles, Garcia and Mladenovic lost their only one meeting with Hlavackova and Hradecka on clay this year, but the French team had a better overall image this year than the Czech one.
