Match preview, prediction and odds

Our pick

LeanLOST
T. Ichikawa to win1.11
Price too short today - wait for 1.22 or bigger · our chance 83% · market 17/83, us 17/83

T. Ichikawa is 5-5 over the last ten. B. Bayldon is 0-0 over the last ten.

The pick is T. Ichikawa to win. We make it a 83% chance, so it is only worth backing at 1.22 or bigger. At 1.11 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.
