Jannik Sinner will expect a hostile atmosphere on Rod Laver Arena as he takes on home favorite Alex de Minaur in a bid to reach the semi-finals of the Australian Open on January 22. The action is scheduled to get underway Down Under at 7.30pm (that’s 8.30am in the UK and 3.30am ET / 12.30am PT in the US). The Australian Open is FREE to watch on 9Now in Australia and you can use a VPN to watch Sinner vs de Minaur live streams from anywhere if you're away.

It’s not been an easy ride for the defending champion in Melbourne, with Sinner struggling physically during his hard-fought victory over Holger Rune in the fourth round. The Italian was clearly affected by the heat and was seen visibly shaking during changeovers, despite having ice towels wrapped around his neck.

Despite needing an 11-minute medical timeout, the 23-year-old showed his class as he battled past the 13th seed in four sets. Now comes another huge challenge against a player in outstanding physical condition and playing in a home Slam.

De Minaur cruised past American Alex Michelsen to reach the Melbourne last eight for the first time and is now bidding to reach the last four of a Grand Slam for the first time. In order to achieve that he will have to beat Sinner for the first time ever, having lost his previous nine matches against the Italian.
