While Alcaraz has already secured the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/tennis\/2025\/11\/13\/alcaraz-clinches-year-end-no-1-beating-musetti\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\">year-end No. 1 ranking<\/a>, this match remains as big as it gets on the ATP Tour for these two rivals. Here is your complete match guide.<\/p>\n<h2>Carlos Alcaraz vs Jannik Sinner Match Guide<\/h2>\n<h3>Head-to-Head<\/h3>\n<p>This will be the 16th ATP tour meeting between the two champions, with Alcaraz holding a 10\u20135 advantage so far, including a stretch of having won seven of their last eight clashes.<\/p>\n<p>It will be just their second meeting on an indoor hard court. Their first came in 2021 at the Rolex Paris Masters, which the Spaniard won in two razor-thin sets.<\/p>\n<h3>Path to the Final<\/h3>\n<p>Alcaraz has raised his level with each match this week, delivering his best performance in the semifinals against Felix Auger-Aliassime. He has dropped only one set en route to the final, guaranteeing his best-ever performance at the Year-End Championships.<\/p>\n<p>Sinner has been flawless in reaching the final, remarkably making his third consecutive Nitto ATP Finals championship match. Not only has the Italian not dropped a set, he has yet to have his serve broken, saving all 12 break points he has faced.<\/p>\n<h3>Date and Time<\/h3>\n<p>The Nitto ATP Finals championship match will take place on Sunday, 16 November.<\/p>\n<p>It will begin after the doubles final, starting not before 6:00 PM local time (12:00 PM in New York, 5:00 PM in London).<\/p>\n<h3>Where to Watch<\/h3>\n<p>The match will be televised across <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nittoatpfinals.com\/en\/tv-schedule\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">major broadcast partners<\/a> and will also stream live and on demand on TennisTV.<\/p>\n<h4>North America and Australia<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>United States<\/strong> \u2013 Tennis Channel<\/li>\n<li><strong>Canada<\/strong> \u2013 TSN<\/li>\n<li><strong>Australia<\/strong> \u2013 beIN Sports Australia<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>Europe<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>United Kingdom<\/strong> \u2013 Sky UK<\/li>\n<li><strong>Germany, Austria, Switzerland<\/strong> \u2013 Sky Deutschland<\/li>\n<li><strong>France<\/strong> \u2013 Eurosport France<\/li>\n<li><strong>Italy<\/strong> \u2013 Sky Italia<\/li>\n<li><strong>Spain<\/strong> \u2013 Telefonica \/ Movistar<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Prize and Ranking<\/h3>\n<p>The winner will earn an incredible $2,367,000 and 500 ranking points from winning the final.<\/p>\n<p>Because both players enter the final unbeaten, the champion will secure an ATP-record $5,071,000 total payout in Turin, along with the maximum 1,500 ranking points.<\/p>\n<p><a id=\"dlJxrMgoR2NUKSglpmZYvA\" class=\"gie-single\" style=\"color: #a7a7a7; text-decoration: none; font-weight: normal !important; border: none; display: inline-block;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.gettyimages.com\/detail\/2245540414\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Embed from Getty Images<\/a><script>window.gie=window.gie||function(c){(gie.q=gie.q||[]).push(c)};gie(function(){gie.widgets.load({id:'dlJxrMgoR2NUKSglpmZYvA',sig:'kHfa93I8ydNEW4hjdhfRxcAuqtBE2ytUK84XFggecWA=',w:'594px',h:'396px',items:'2245540414',caption: true ,tld:'com',is360: false })});<\/script><script src='\/\/embed-cdn.gettyimages.com\/widgets.js' charset='utf-8' async><\/script><\/p>\n<h3>Match Preview<\/h3>\n<p>While hard courts are undoubtedly Sinner\u2019s preferred surface, Alcaraz has won their last four meetings on the cement, though none of those were indoors, a setting in which Sinner is currently riding a 30-match winning streak (read our <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/tennis\/2025\/11\/15\/atp-finals-final-prediction-alcaraz-sinner\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\">prediction<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>The Italian has served brilliantly all week, keeping himself out of trouble on serve. But if there is one player capable of disrupting him in the serve-return dynamic, which will likely decide the match, it is Alcaraz, whose movement and shot-making arsenal can extend points better than anyone else on tour.<\/p>\n<p>On a slick indoor surface, Sinner may hold a slight edge, but this rivalry has repeatedly shown us to expect the unexpected. And how lucky are we, as tennis fans, to get one final showdown between them in a season defined so completely by their mutual dominance.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Main Photo Credit: Robert Deutsch &#8211; Imagn Images<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The final match of the 2025 ATP season is finally upon us, and fittingly it is World No. 1 Carlos Alcaraz taking on World No. 2 Jannik Sinner to decide the Year-End Championships winner.
