Highlights

• • Implied home probability at 1.82 = 54.9%; our conservative estimate = 52.0%
• • Required fair odds for home to be +EV = 1.923; current 1.82 is too short

Pros

• + Home is listed as slight favorite which aligns with a modest edge assumption
• + Market prices are close, so small informational advantages could matter

Cons

• - No independent data on surface, form, injuries, or pair chemistry to justify exceeding the market
• - Bookmaker overround meaning both sides are slightly overpriced relative to fair probabilities

Details

We have no external form, surface, injury or H2H data, so we adopt a conservative baseline that the home pair (E. Coleman/A. Hrastar) is marginally more likely to win than the away pair. The market-implied probability for the home side at 1.82 is 54.9% (1/1.82). After accounting for uncertainty and bookmaker overround (~7.6% on the two-way line), we estimate a true win probability for the home side of 52.0%. At that probability the fair decimal price is 1.923; the current price 1.82 yields EV = 0.52*1.82 - 1 = -0.054 (negative). In short, the current home price does not offer value versus our conservative estimate, so we do not recommend a wager. To be profitable on the home side given our probability, we would need at least ~1.923. The away side (1.90) would require a higher true probability to be a value bet; given the lack of supportive data and symmetrical uncertainty we do not find positive EV there either.

Key factors

• • No external data (form, surface, injuries, H2H) — we use a conservative baseline
• • Bookmaker margin (~7.6%) reduces the edge compared with raw implied probabilities
• • Doubles match dynamics (team chemistry, pairing history) are unknown and increase uncertainty
