Details
We find clear value on the away moneyline (Sina Herrmann). The market heavily favors the home player at 1.12 (implied win probability ~89.3%) despite both players having almost identical career records (10-21) and similar surface experience (clay and hard) in the provided research. Recent form notes are also very similar for each player and there are no injury notes or other differentiators in the data. Given the near-parity in profiles and lack of evidence supporting an ~90% chance for the home player, we estimate a materially higher true probability for the away player than the market price implies. Comparing our estimated true probability for Sina Herrmann (45.0%) to the market decimal 5.8 (implied 17.24%) produces strong positive expected value at available prices. We therefore recommend the away side as a value play while acknowledging higher variance and limited sample information.
Key factors
