Ilya Ivashka v Beibit Zhukayev

Match preview, prediction and odds

Our pick

LeanWON
I. Ivashka to win 2-01.80
Price too short today - wait for 2.08 or bigger · our chance 48% · market 72/28, us 78/22

I. Ivashka is 8-2 over the last ten and 28-11 on hard this season. B. Zhukayev is 4-6 over the last ten and 10-13 on hard this season. The head to head is I. Ivashka 1-0.

The pick is I. Ivashka to win 2-0. We make it a 48% chance, so it is only worth backing at 2.08 or bigger. At 1.80 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.
