Two perfect records meet in Sunday's Erste Bank Open final in Vienna: Alex de Minaur has won all ten of his indoor matches this season, while Carlos Alcaraz has won all six of their previous meetings. According to the organiser's preview, one run must end.

14:00 is the earliest possible start

The singles final at the Wiener Stadthalle begins no earlier than 14:00 on 1 November, Budapest time, according to the official schedule. The doubles final starts first, at 11:30.

Alcaraz beat Medvedev 6–4, 7–6(2). He can now win the Vienna title for the first time; de Minaur is also seeking his first title here. Read the background to Alcaraz's return in our earlier article.
