Details
We see value on the home side, Daniel Milavsky. Milavsky has a larger match sample (56 matches) and a stronger overall record (40-15) compared with Blaise Bicknell (18-15 in 33 matches), and both have recent activity on hard courts. The market price of 1.63 implies a win probability of ~61.35%, while our assessment, weighting career win rates, surface familiarity and slightly stronger recent form for Milavsky, gives a true win probability of 63.0%. At that probability the fair price is 1.587 decimal, so the offered 1.63 contains positive expected value (EV = 0.63 * 1.63 - 1 ≈ 0.027). We therefore recommend the home moneyline only because EV > 0 at the current available price.
