Great Britain will have a home tie against Sweden in the Billie Jean King Cup play-offs in November.

Anne Keothavong's side must win in order to make it into next year's qualifier where they will get a chance to go to the 2024 end-of-year finals.

They lost to France in this year's attempt, going down 3-1 in Coventry last month.

It is a winnable tie for GB, with the venue to be decided, as they only have one player currently ranked in the top 150 in the world, with Rebecca Peterson coming in at 86.

The top-end of the rankings are not highly populated by British women currently either, but the likes of Katie Boulter, Harriet Dart and Heather Watson always raise their game for the team event, while Emma Raducanu could also be selected if she recovers from her current injury problems.

The tie will be played on the 10-11 or 11-12 November.

At the same time the end-of-year finals will take place in Seville.

Defending champions Switzerland have been drawn in Group A with the Czech Republic and the United States.

Last year's runners-up Australia are in Group B with Kazakhstan and Slovenia, hosts Spain are in Group C with Canada and Poland while GB's conquerors France are joined in Group D with Italy and Germany.
