His latest straight-set victory came against Daniil Medvedev, while the previous wins over Karen Khachanov, Nikoloz Basilashvili and Tommy Paul followed the same pattern.
De Minaur arrives with four consecutive victories, but his route has been less clean: he dropped a set to Tomas Machac and another to Alexander Zverev before reaching the final. The head-to-head is even more significant: Alcaraz leads 6:0, including three hard-court wins, and took the latest meeting 3:0 at the Australian Open. Alcaraz also stated after beating Medvedev that the result was a special feeling and that he would prepare fully for the final. The likely score is 2:0 to Alcaraz.
Conclusion
Total Under (21.5) 1.85 is supported by Alcaraz’s four straight-set wins in Vienna, his 6:0 record against De Minaur and the Spaniard’s current defensive efficiency. A short final is the preferred scenario.
