Details
We see a large market lean toward Deborah Chiesa at 1.22 (implied ~81.97%) while Chiara Fornasieri is priced at 4.00 (implied 25%). The raw season records provided are nearly identical (Fornasieri 10-22, Chiesa 10-21) and both show recent losses on the same surfaces; there is no injury or form evidence favoring Chiesa decisively in the supplied research. Given that parity, a fair true probability for Fornasieri should be substantially higher than the market-implied 25%. We conservatively estimate Fornasieri's true win probability at 35% (0.35). At decimal 4.00 this yields EV = 0.35*4.00 - 1 = +0.40 (40% ROI on a 1-unit stake). Therefore current prices offer value on the home upset; minimum fair odds to justify taking the bet at our projected probability are 2.857 decimal. We acknowledge uncertainty (limited data, no H2H), so we use a conservative probability rather than a more aggressive number.
Key factors
- • Nearly identical season records and surface profiles for both players
- • Market heavily favors Chiesa despite no clear superiority in supplied data
- • No injury or form advantage reported for the favorite, increasing upset potential
