Mattia Bellucci v Yi Zhou

Match preview, prediction and odds

Our pick

LeanLOST
M. Bellucci to win1.29
Price too short today - wait for 1.31 or bigger · our chance 77% · market 75/25, us 77/23

M. Bellucci is 7-3 over the last ten and 22-17 on hard this season. Y. Zhou is 3-7 over the last ten and 13-16 on hard this season. M. Bellucci has played 6 matches in seven days.

The pick is M. Bellucci to win. We make it a 77% chance, so it is only worth backing at 1.31 or bigger. At 1.29 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.
