Alex Bolt v Dane Sweeny

Match preview, prediction and odds

Our pick

LeanLOST
D. Sweeny to win1.70
Price too short today - wait for 1.81 or bigger · our chance 55% · market 43/57, us 45/55

D. Sweeny is 4-6 over the last ten and 21-20 on hard this season. A. Bolt is 5-5 over the last ten and 17-15 on hard this season. A. Bolt took a medical timeout on 2026-09-23. The head to head is A. Bolt 3-0.

The pick is D. Sweeny to win. We make it a 55% chance, so it is only worth backing at 1.81 or bigger. At 1.70 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.
