Abedallah Shelbayh v Mitchell Krueger

Match preview, prediction and odds

Our pick

LeanWON
A. Shelbayh to win1.64
Price too short today - wait for 1.82 or bigger · our chance 55% · market 56/44, us 55/45

A. Shelbayh is 7-3 over the last ten and 23-18 on hard this season. M. Krueger is 6-4 over the last ten and 12-16 on hard this season. The head to head is A. Shelbayh 0-2.

The pick is A. Shelbayh to win. We make it a 55% chance, so it is only worth backing at 1.82 or bigger. At 1.64 that is not there yet - leave it, or wait for the price to drift in-play (an early break against usually does it).

An opinion from the numbers, not a guarantee. 19+, bet responsibly.

Ranking points fall off a year after they are earned, so a player who went deep here last year must match it or drop in the rankings. That shapes effort in a way the price does not always show.
