Match preview, prediction and odds
Our pick
LeanWONT. Paul is 7-3 over the last ten and 33-17 on hard this season. D. Merida Aguilar is 6-4 over the last ten and 25-12 on hard this season.
The pick is T. Paul to win. We make it a 79% chance, so it is only worth backing at 1.27 or bigger. At 1.21 that is not there yet - leave it, or wait for the price to drift in-play (an early break against usually does it).

Head to head
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.
