Highlights

• • Book implied prob: 90.1% vs our estimate 92%
• • Estimated EV ~+2.1% at current price

Pros

• + Market price slightly underestimates a heavy favorite in this context
• + Low variance in expected straight-sets outcomes for dominant doubles pairs

Cons

• - Very thin margin of value — sensitive to any adverse news
• - Small payout due to low decimal odds; single upset would wipe ROI

Details

We compare the bookmaker-implied probability (1/1.11 = 90.09%) to a conservative true-win probability given the heavy market favoritism and lack of contrary information. In absence of injury, surface, or form negatives in the Research, and recognizing that heavy favorites in lower-tier doubles matches win at very high rates, we estimate the home pair's true chance at 92%. This implies a small but positive edge: EV = 0.92 * 1.11 - 1 = +0.021 (≈ +2.1% ROI). The margin is slim, so our recommendation is conditional and conservative — only attractive because the market price is slightly softer than our estimated probability warrants; if new negative information appears (injury, withdrawal, poor conditions), the value disappears.

Key factors

• • Bookmaker-implied probability for home (90.09%) vs our conservative estimate (92%)
• • Heavy favorite dynamics in lower-tier doubles often produce high win rates
• • No contrary research (injury/form/H2H) available, increasing model uncertainty
