James McCabe v Federico Cina

Match preview, prediction and odds

Our pick

LeanWON
F. Cina to win 2-01.69
Price too short today - wait for 1.91 or bigger · our chance 53% · market 24/76, us 19/81

F. Cina is 5-5 over the last ten and 18-13 on hard this season. J. McCabe is 1-9 over the last ten and 17-17 on hard this season.

The pick is F. Cina to win 2-0. We make it a 53% chance, so it is only worth backing at 1.91 or bigger. At 1.69 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.
