- Uber Cup schedule
China vs Denmark, Venue 1
The Chinese team sent the strongest lineup to play, with Chen Yufei, He Bingjiao and Han Yue in singles, and Chen Qingchen/Jia Yifan and Liu Shengshu/Zhang Shuxian in women's doubles. The 5 matches are Chen Yufei vs Jakesfield, Chen Qingchen/Jia Yifan vs Bol/Malken, He Bingjiao vs Lane, Liu Shengshu/Zhang Shuxian vs Busch/Emily, Han Yue vs Jacobson.
In 5 games, the Chinese team has an absolute advantage, and it is optimistic that China will win 3 games in a row to advance to the semifinals.
- Japan vs India, Venue 2
Japan's number one star Akane Yamaguchi is absent, probably due to injury, which is bad news for Japan. However, India's Women's Singles Sindhu was also absent, so Japan still has the upper hand overall.
The five matches are Aya Ohori vs Chariha, Nami Matsuyama/Chiyo Shida vs Pria/Mishra, Nozomi Okuhara vs Ishani, Rena Miyourura/Ayako Sakuramoto vs Singh/Rietica, and Tomoka Miyazaki vs Sharma. Japan had the advantage in the first four games, and the fifth game was evenly matched. There is still no suspense about Japan's victory, and it is estimated that it will be a 3-0 victory.
