Thomas Faurel v Mark Lajal
Match preview, prediction and odds
Our pick
LeanWONM. Lajal is 8-2 over the last ten and 27-15 on hard this season. T. Faurel is 6-4 over the last ten and 16-8 on hard this season.
The pick is M. Lajal to win 2-0. We make it a 55% chance, so it is only worth backing at 1.81 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).

This season & this event
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.
