As a result hosts Spain will automatically reach the finals, along with wildcards Great Britain and 2023 finalists Italy and Australia.

Djokovic and Serbia crashed out in the semifinals on Saturday against Italy, as Jannik Sinner beat the world number one in the second singles rubber and then again in the doubles.

Finland, who eliminated record 32-time champions United States this year and reached the semifinals, will host Portugal.

Crowds have filled the Martin Carpena arena in Malaga for the majority of the final eight ties this year, although the organizers came under fire for poor attendances during the finals group stage.
