Tennis Betting Lines

02/03/2012 - Charleroi, Belgium (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The 2012 Fed Cup quarterfinal between Serbia and host Belgium will get underway Saturday with a singles match between the visitors' former world No. 1 star Jelena Jankovic and Kirsten Flipkens.

Jankovic-Flipkens will be followed by a rubber between the Serbs' Bojana Jovanovski and the hosts' Yanina Wickmayer.

Sunday's reverse singles will pit the former U.S. Open runner-up Jankovic against Wickmayer and Jovanovski versus Flipkens, while the potentially- deciding doubles match on Day 2 will pit a Serbian duo of Jankovic and Aleksandra Krunic against a Belgian tandem of Tamaryn Hendler and Alison Van Uytvanck.

The Serbs are captained by Dejan Vranes, while team Belgium is guided by Ann Devries.

The best-of-five tie will be staged on an indoor hardcourt at Charleroi's Spiroudome.

Belgium owns one Fed Cup title, while Serbia is still in search of its first championship. The Belgians are 2-0 all-time versus the Serbs.

The winner here will face the Russia-Spain victor in the semifinals in April.
