- • Estimated EV on Ponchet at current odds is +37.5% ROI per unit staked
Pros
- + Large discrepancy between market-implied and our estimated probability

Details
We estimate this match to be roughly even given the research: both players show identical career records (10-21) and similar recent results on hard courts, with no clear injury or H2H advantage presented. The market prices Ella Seidel at 1.45 (implied win probability ~68.97%) and Jessika Ponchet at 2.75 (implied ~36.36%), producing a notable bookmaker margin. Because the available data gives no objective edge to Seidel, we treat the true win probability as close to 50% for each player. At that estimated probability, Ponchet at 2.75 offers substantial value (EV = 0.5*2.75 - 1 = +0.375). In short: the market is overpricing Seidel relative to what the data supports, creating value on Ponchet at the quoted 2.75.
Key factors
- • Both players show identical overall records and recent form in the provided research, implying a roughly even matchup
- • Surface exposure (hard) is similar for both players in the research, removing surface bias
- • Market-implied probability heavily favors Seidel (≈69%) while available data does not justify that gap
