The Americans are the defending Fed Cup champion and are gunning to win back-to-back Fed Cup titles for the first time since 1999-2000. The U.S. is 10-2 all-time vs. the Czechs and defeated a young Czech squad in the 2017 Semifinals in Tampa, Fla., en route to winning its record 18th Fed Cup title.
The Czech Republic has been quite the juggernaut on the international stage over the last decade however. Led by Petra Kvitova, the Czechs have won five Fed Cup titles over the last seven years, four of which have come on a hard court inside the O2 Arena in Prague.
The Czechs took out Germany 4-1 in Stuttgart on indoor clay in April, led by by two singles victories from Kvitova. The Americans edged the French in their semifinal tie in Aix-en-Provence, thanks to two singles victories from Sloane Stephens.
