Match preview, prediction and odds

Our pick

Lean

F. Sun to win1.44

Price too short today - wait for 1.52 or bigger · our chance 66% · market 37/63, us 34/66

F. Sun is 5-5 over the last ten and 32-27 on hard this season. P. Bar Biryukov is 4-6 over the last ten and 33-23 on hard this season. The head to head is P. Bar Biryukov 1-0.

The pick is F. Sun to win. We make it a 66% chance, so it is only worth backing at 1.52 or bigger. At 1.44 that is not there yet - leave it, or wait for the price to drift in-play (an early break against usually does it).

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.
