Alex de Minaur, on the other hand, has also made some crucial contributions that have paved the path for his team’s second consecutive Davis Cup final.

Later in the semifinals, De Minaur thumped Finland’s Emil Ruusuvuori in a straight-set match 6-4, 6-3, as the Aussies have now made it to their second consecutive Davis Cup final.

This will be their sixth on-court encounter, with the 22-year-old Italian player currently enjoying a dominating 5-0 lead in his head-to-head record against De Minaur. In the championship of the Canadian Open, the ATP players last squared off against each other, with Sinner winning the title after a 6-4, 6-1 victory. 

Prediction: Sinner to guide his nation to international glory 

Even though both ATP players have been performing brilliantly at the Davis Cup, it is the Italian who will likely outperform De Minaur in their upcoming on-court encounter. Given his past meetings against the Aussie and his stellar form throughout this season, the 22-year-old player will prevail in this singles match and will guide his nation to glory at the international event.
