ATP - ATP US Open
Prediction :
Carlos Alcaraz wins the match
The match everyone has been waiting for is here; top seed Jannik Sinner will defend his US Open title against second seed Carlos Alcaraz. This fixture has grown to be one of the most anticipated matchups in tennis in recent seasons. Their 16th career showdown is also their fifth of the season and their sixth consecutive meeting as a championship match. Read on to find our prediction.
Sinner defeated 25th seed Felix Auger-Aliassime to advance to the final, while Alcaraz saw off the challenge of seventh seed Novak Djokovic. Though he has a strong head-to-head advantage over Sinner, Alcaraz isn’t favored by the bookies to win this match. That honor goes to Sinner, who hasn’t lost at the US Open since last year’s showpiece.
One thing should be certain, though, that we are in for a blockbuster matchup as the best two players in the world get to go head-to-head.

Jannik Sinner is renowned for his devastating two-sided backhand that almost has no counter. The Italian is a no-nonsense, aggressive baseliner and, with his lanky frame, has strong defensive capabilities.
Sinner's season, both before and after suspension, can only be summarized by one word: Dominance. He's had that in most of his matches, and it is the big quality he brings here.
Dominance, unpredictability, and consistency will all be in the mix as Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner face off in the 2025 US Open men's final.
Carlos Alcaraz is one of the best, if not the most, aggressive players on a tennis court today. The Spaniard has an all-court style, which makes him a nightmare for his opponents, as he can easily adapt to their style.
Blessed with power, Alcaraz has dominated opponents with his unpredictable forehand. The Spaniard has laced his unpredictability with consistency this season, losing just six times in the year.
Sinner hasn’t lost a tie in this tournament since last season. However, we fancy Alcaraz to end his streak and be crowned US Open champion for a second time. The Spaniard is playing otherworldly at the moment. He is on a 12-match winning streak and has arrived at this final without losing a set at Flushing Meadows.
He also has an incredible record against Sinner, with four of his 10 wins in this series coming in tournament-deciding fixtures. It is also worth noting that no player has defended a US Open title in 17 years. Our prediction for Jannik Sinner v Carlos Alcaraz is that Carlos Alcaraz wins the match.
over 3.5 sets
At least four sets have been contested in the five Grand Slam duels between Sinner and Alcaraz. Therefore, for our second prediction, we settle for over 3.5 sets to be contested. This is one of the most anticipated matchups of a calendar year in tennis, and we expect it to be a spectacle.
Sinner and Alcaraz have each won at least one set in the previous five times they have duelled at a major. Both players are also phenomenal hardcourt players, which adds to the thrill.
