When are the Davis Cup Finals 2023?

Each of the three main finals group stages has its own date. We've broken down the final stages of the Davis Cup to make it easier.

The Final 8 Quarter Finals: 21st to 23rd November

The quarter-finals of the Davis Cup are known as the Final 8. The final 8 are made up of the top two teams from each group in the group stage.

This year, the final 8 are made up of:

• Canada - Group A - 2022 finalist
• Finland - Group D
• Czechia - Group C
• Australia - Group B - 2022 finalist
• Italy - Group A - Wild card
• Netherlands - Group D
• Great Britain - Group B
• Serbia - Group C

The matches for the final 8 quarter-finals are as follows:

The Davis Cup Semi-Finals: 24th to 25th November

Once the final 8 matches have been played, the semi-finals are scheduled to take place on:

• Friday 24th November at 4 pm
• Saturday 25th November at 12 pm

These matches will be played by the winning national teams from the final 8. This means that either Canada or Finland will play Czechia or Australia, and the Netherlands or Italy will play Great Britain or Serbia.

The Davis Cup Final: 26th November

The final takes place on Sunday 26th November at 4 pm.

What Time Will the Davis Cup Finals Take Place?

All matches throughout the Davis Cup competition are set to begin at 16:00 CET. If you're watching the tournament in the UK, the matches will begin at 14:00 GMT. There's an exception for the Italy vs. Netherlands quarter-final match, which takes place at 10:00 CET (08:00 GMT) so as to avoid clashing with Great Britain vs. Serbia match.

The second semi-final has a start time of 12:00 CET on 25th November. If you're watching on TV at home in the UK, the match starts at 10:00 GMT.

If you're planning to watch the Davis Cup Finals on TV, it's important to remember that weather and other factors may affect the actual start time of the tennis matches.

Where Does the Davis Cup Final Take Place?

This year, the finals are being played in Malaga, Spain, at the Palacio Deportes Martin Carpena. This is the venue for all of the Davis Cup final 8 playoffs. This makes it a lot easier to plan your trip if you're lucky enough to have tickets to any of the finals group stage matches.

Who is the Favourite to Win the Men's and Women's Davis Cup Finals?

Now that the final group stage is complete and the final 8 teams have been decided, we can begin to look towards the favourite to win.

Serbia are currently at the top of the odds table with odds of 6/5 to win. These odds might be surprising, considering Serbia has only been world champions once with the Davis Cup in 2010, and Australia has won 28 titles since the competition began.
