Match preview, prediction and odds

Our pick

Lean
T. Schoolkate to win1.50
Price too short today - wait for 1.55 or bigger · our chance 65% · market 61/39, us 65/35

T. Schoolkate is 6-4 over the last ten and 30-23 on hard this season. J. Cui is 6-4 over the last ten and 28-24 on hard this season. T. Schoolkate has played 4 matches in seven days. J. Cui took a medical timeout on 2026-10-14. J. Cui has played 4 matches in seven days. The head to head is T. Schoolkate 1-2.

The pick is T. Schoolkate to win. We make it a 65% chance, so it is only worth backing at 1.55 or bigger. At 1.50 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.
