The winners of each pool will be drawn to play-off against each other to determine which two nations will advance to the World Group II play-offs in April 2018.
Slovenia’s Fed Cup captain Andrej Krasevic elected World No. 174 Dalila Jakupovic, World No. 179 Tamara Zidansek, World No. 438 Nina Potocnik and 17-yaer-old Kaja Juvan, who is ranked No. 492 in the world.
“I am looking forward to play for Slovenia in the Fed Cup. Last year, I already gained some experience in this format, but this year I will have the chance to face players, who are ranked even higher,” Juvan told.
