Details
We estimate Jesper De Jong is the value at the current market price. De Jong's career win rate (42-30, ~58%) materially exceeds Tomas Martin Etcheverry's record (26-34, ~43%), both have experience across surfaces including hard courts so surface mismatch is not a clear disadvantage. The market price of 1.66 implies a win probability of ~60.2%; we assess a true win probability of 62% for De Jong given superior recent record and comparable Grand Slam exposure in the research. At p=0.62 the fair odds are 1.613; the offered 1.66 therefore yields positive expected value. We note uncertainty from limited head-to-head and injury details in the provided research, so the edge is modest but present.
Key factors
