Match preview, prediction and odds

Our pick

LeanLOST
N. Sanchez Izquierdo to win1.34
Price too short today - wait for 1.40 or bigger · our chance 71% · market 29/71, us 29/71

N. Sanchez Izquierdo is 6-4 over the last ten and 28-19 on clay this season. T. Pereira is 5-5 over the last ten and 20-16 on clay this season.

The pick is N. Sanchez Izquierdo to win. We make it a 71% chance, so it is only worth backing at 1.40 or bigger. At 1.34 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.
