(Bree) Belgian No. 2, Kim Clijsters said she was fit enough to play for the Belgium Fed Cup team in her hometown Bree. Since the Belgians also miss Justine Henin-Hardenne in the team it is of great importance that Clijsters will play against Croatia who think they have a chance to win. After Karolina Sprem decided to play for Croatia the team feels they have a chance to beat Belgium. The promising Croatian youngster Sprem is currently ranked #32, the 19-year-old took some days of rest before she decided to join the Croatian Team in Belgium last Tuesday.

The draw for the Belgium vs Croatia meeting:

Venue: Expodroom Bree, Bree, BEL
