After Italy and Russia take two of the four semifinal spots in the 2021 ATP Cup, the defending champions Serbia are hoping to book one of the last remaining spots to defend their title.

Group A’s semi-finalist will be decided later Thursday night between Germany and Serbia. With the world number one on their side, Serbia is hoping to push by with ease against the Germans. However, Djokovic will be taking on world number 7 and German sensation, Alexander Zverev in one of the two singles matches.
