Sinner vs Alcaraz live stream: preview

After repelling a spirited challenge from Félix Auger-Aliassime in the semi-finals, Sinner has become just the fourth man in the Open era to reach all four major finals in a single season. The Italian has won 26 of his 27 matches at Slams this year, with his only defeat coming against Alcaraz in the French Open final.

The top seed has dropped just two sets en route to the final at Flushing Meadows and has recorded a remarkable 27 straight victories at the hard-court majors. Aiming to win his fifth Grand Slam title, Sinner will hope to recreate the form that saw him overcome Alcaraz in the Wimbledon final back in July.

While Sinner emerged victorious in four sets at SW19, it is Alcaraz who leads the head-to-heads, having won nine of their 14 encounters. The Spaniard has also been sensational at Flushing Meadows, sweeping past all his opponents without losing a set. Having breezed past Novak Djokovic in the last four, he’ll arrive at the final full of confidence.

With the No. 1 ranking also on the line, this is a final you simply can’t afford to miss. So read on below for everything you need to watch Sinner vs Alcaraz live streams from anywhere with a VPN, and potentially for FREE.
