TURIN, Italy (AP)—Top-ranked Novak Djokovic will be bidding for a record-breaking seventh ATP Finals title when he takes on home favorite Jannik Sinner in Sunday's final.

Djokovic took less than 90 minutes to beat Carlos Alcaraz, 6-3, 6-2, in a semifinal match between the top two ranked players on Saturday night, after Sinner had earlier dispatched Daniil Medvedev, 6-3, 6-7 (4), 6-1.

The 36-year-old Djokovic is currently tied with Roger Federer on six titles at the season-ending tournament for the year's top eight players, while Sinner is the first Italian to reach the final.

However, Sinner recorded his first-ever victory over Djokovic earlier this week and the Serbian will also have to contend again with a passionate, partisan crowd.

"He's been playing fantastic tennis, arguably the best tennis of his life," Djokovic said. "We played a very close match the other night. The atmosphere was unbelievable, electric really. I don't expect anything less than that, probably even louder than what we had in the group-stage matchup.
