Tommy Paul v Luciano Darderi

Match preview, prediction and odds

Our pick

Lean
T. Paul to win1.25
Price too short today - wait for 1.31 or bigger · our chance 77% · market 75/25, us 77/23

T. Paul is 6-4 over the last ten and 31-16 on hard this season. L. Darderi is 5-5 over the last ten and 18-15 on hard this season. The head to head is T. Paul 2-1.

The pick is T. Paul to win. We make it a 77% chance, so it is only worth backing at 1.31 or bigger. At 1.25 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.
