Martin Damm v Shintaro Mochizuki

Match preview, prediction and odds

Our pick

LeanWON
M. Damm to win1.47
Price too short today - wait for 1.48 or bigger · our chance 68% · market 65/35, us 68/32

M. Damm is 5-5 over the last ten and 25-16 on hard this season. S. Mochizuki is 4-6 over the last ten and 13-20 on hard this season. The head to head is M. Damm 0-1.

The pick is M. Damm to win. We make it a 68% chance, so it is only worth backing at 1.48 or bigger. At 1.47 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.
