The World Group play-off between Belgium and Israel is being held on 12, 13 and 15 September, with Belgium and Israel tied at 1-1 on Friday.

The winners of the two semifinals will contest the 2013 World Group Final on 15-17 November. The winners of the eight World Group play-offs will qualify for the 2014 World Group, while the losers will contest their respective Zone Group I competition in 2014.
