The championship day in Melbourne has arrived after two weeks non-stop action. The stage is set for an epic showdown between World No.1 Jannik Sinner and No.2 Alexander Zverev. In the 2025 Australian Open final, the Italian will look to establish his dominance down under with a second successive win. On the other hand, the German, who’s playing his first AO final, will focus on clinching his maiden Slam. Given that both players are in red hot form, this match-up will surely be an edge-of-a-seat thriller. But how and where can tennis lovers enjoy it from the comfort of their homes?

The 2025 Australian Open final between Jannik Sinner and Alexander Zverev starts at 7:30 pm on Sunday, January 26, as per local timings in Melbourne, Australia. Now coming to the main venue of the final encounter between Sinner and Zverev, it will be played at Rod Laver Arena in Melbourne. Since 1988, when the Australian Open was shifted to Melbourne Park, all the finals have been played here only. But now comes the most important question of match day: how can fans watch all the live action?

They can tune into the men’s singles final down under across various channels and streaming platforms from renowned broadcasters.

For viewers residing in North America and Latin America & Caribbean, they can watch the final live on RDS, Tennis Channel, TSN, ESPN, and ESPN International. Speaking of fans in Europe, Africa, and Central Asia, they can enjoy Sinner and Zverev’s clash on Eurosport, SRG, SSR, beIN Sports, SuperSport, and Sony Sports Network.

When it comes to tennis lovers in Asia Pacific & Oceania, Middle East, India & subcontinent, the final will be available to watch on ESPN, Tennis Channel, beIN Sports, CCTV, iQIYI, GDTV, WOWOW, Nine, Stan Sport, Digicel, CJ ENM, TDM, ESPN International, SKY, Sportcast, K-Plus, and Sony Sports Network.

Speaking more of the two contenders, two-time Major champion Sinner made it to the title clash after edging out Ben Shelton. He initially faced a slight challenge from the 22-year-old American. However, the Italian comfortably beat him 7-6(2), 6-2, 6-2.

On the other hand, the 27-year-old German sealed his spot in the final after his opponent, 24-time Slam winner Novak Djokovic, withdrew due to an ongoing hamstring injury. Prior to his retirement, the 1o-time AO king had lost the opening set already in a tie-break.

Going into the epic showdown Sinner seems to be the favorite. But Zverev may stun him on Sunday. At least that’s what a former American pro has suggested.

Alexander Zverev may give a shocker to Jannik Sinner in Sunday’s Australian Open title clash

In an episode of Nothing Major podcast, Steve Johnson, a former American ATP prom, shared a strong feeling for the German. Supporting the 2018 ATP Finals winner, the ex-pro said, “I am gonna stick with that prediction to say Sascha gets it done.” Not just that, he even drew parallels with previous tennis legends and said, “He is arguably one of the best players to not have won a slam. Definitely active for sure, I am like the Berdych, Ferrers, some of those guys like Nishikori, guys that haven’t won a slam but I think he gets it done and yeah, I am excited to watch the match”

But Johnson’s not the only one backing Alexander Zverev over Jannik Sinner in 2025 Australian Open final. Former World No.1 Jim Courier also believes that the German has got the potential to rise to the occasion. According to him, Zverev can play more dominantly in the final compared to his performance in the SF against Djokovic, where he didn’t play show aggression. “I thought he played a very conservative match today, perhaps intentionally against Novak, who was struggling. He will have to play a far more structured match to beat Jannik Sinner.”

Per the Eurosport expert, “He will not be able to play conservative tennis and win” against the Fox. “Roger Federer rightly said last year, Sascha has everything, but one thing he needs to do in the big moments is to be more decisive.”

Sinner might be in a great form lately, but his h2h tally against Zverev is concerning. Out of the six encounters between them so far, the German is currently leading 4-2. Does that mean he’s got a chance to stun Sinner on Sunday at Rod Laver Arena? Only time will tell. What’s your prediction about the awaited battle? Let us know in the comments below.
