Dominik Palan v Semen Pankin

Match preview, prediction and odds

Our pick

Lean
S. Pankin to win1.57
Price too short today - wait for 1.60 or bigger · our chance 63% · market 40/60, us 37/63

S. Pankin is 2-8 over the last ten and 36-20 on hard this season. D. Palan is 2-8 over the last ten and 24-25 on hard this season. D. Palan took a medical timeout on 2026-10-18. The head to head is D. Palan 0-1.

The pick is S. Pankin to win. We make it a 63% chance, so it is only worth backing at 1.60 or bigger. At 1.57 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.
