Match preview, prediction and odds

Our pick

Lean
T. Schoolkate to win 2-01.44
Price too short today - wait for 1.63 or bigger · our chance 61% · market 84/16, us 88/12

T. Schoolkate is 5-5 over the last ten and 29-23 on hard this season. M. Imamura is 2-8 over the last ten and 39-28 on hard this season. The head to head is T. Schoolkate 0-1.

The pick is T. Schoolkate to win 2-0. We make it a 61% chance, so it is only worth backing at 1.63 or bigger. At 1.44 that is not there yet - leave it, or wait for the price to drift in-play (an early break against usually does it).

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.
