The 19 year old singer, who is a part of Team Seal, will go up against a fellow team mate in the show’s fourth battle round.
Ryan and his competitor will perform a duet together and coach Seal will decide which artist will go forward to the next round of the competition.
In a new twist in this year’s competition, the artist who is not selected to continue with competition has the chance to be saved by another coach.
Each coach has the chance to save only one artist, however going into tonight’s battle round, Delta Goodrem is the only coach left with a save.
My battle round for #thevoiceau2013 is on TONIGHT people! 7pm channel 9 ;) #ryansanders #teamseal… instagram.com/p/YtihwPyzEX/

Ryan first appeared on our screens earlier this month in the Blind Auditions, with a rendition of Matt Corby’s hit song Brother.
Ryan had barely opened his mouth when judge Seal slammed his hand down and spun around in his seat to claim Ryan for his team.
Australian singer/songwriter Delta Goodrem followed, then Good Charlotte’s Joel Madden.
Only recording artist Ricky Martin, who has replaced country star Keith Urban, did not turn – although he still had praise for the local performer.
When given the choice of the three coaches, Ryan chose Seal to be his coach because they had been through similar things in their lives.
“I love the way he connected with me,” Ryan said. “As a musician he is fantastic – an international superstar who played little venues like me. To have three of them turn around was a big shock. Luckily for me they liked what they heard.”
Ryan said being part of the blind audition process was everything he thought it would be and more. He said he never expected to have such an opportunity.
“Singing is something I do for fun every day,” he said. “This show is really special because it gives young musicians like me an opportunity to show what they can do.
Watch Ryan perform on The Voice on Channel Nine from 7pm tonight.
