Match preview, prediction and odds

Our pick

LeanLOST
A. Fils to win1.23
Price too short today - wait for 1.29 or bigger · our chance 78% · market 79/21, us 78/22

A. Fils is 8-2 over the last ten and 31-9 on hard this season. B. Van De Zandschulp is 7-3 over the last ten and 19-14 on hard this season. The head to head is A. Fils 1-0.

The pick is A. Fils to win. We make it a 78% chance, so it is only worth backing at 1.29 or bigger. At 1.23 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.
