Highlights

• • Home implied probability 58.4% vs our estimate 60.0%
• • Estimated ROI ≈ 2.84% at current home price

Pros

• + Clearer, better win-loss profile and more matches on clay for Manzano
• + Current price (1.714) sits above our break-even threshold (1.667)

Cons

• - Data set is limited — few granular recent-match stats and no H2H data
• - Edge is small (low margin), vulnerable to variance and unreported last-minute factors

Details

We compare the market-implied probabilities to our assessment based on the provided player profiles. The current market prices imply a 58.37% chance for the home player (1 / 1.714) and a 49.02% chance for the away player (1 / 2.04). From the Research, Juan Cruz Martin Manzano has a materially better career win-rate (21-16 over 37 matches, ~56.7%) and more activity on clay, while Giorgio Tabacco has a weaker record (8-15 over 23 matches, ~34.8%) despite also playing on clay. Both played recent events at the same M25 Lesa clay tournament, but Manzano's larger sample and higher win rate on clay suggest he is the stronger player. We estimate Manzano's true win probability at 60.0%, which exceeds the market-implied 58.4%, producing a small positive edge. At the current home decimal price (1.714) this yields a positive expected value (EV = 0.6 * 1.714 - 1 ≈ 0.0284, or ~2.84% ROI). The away price at 2.04 does not offer value versus our estimated probability for Tabacco (we estimate Tabacco substantially below the implied ~49%). Given limited detailed match-level stats and no H2H, the edge is modest but present on the home side at the quoted market price.

Key factors

• • Manzano has a superior overall record (21-16) versus Tabacco (8-15)
• • Both players recently played M25 Lesa on clay; Manzano's larger sample on clay favors him
• • Market-implied home probability (58.4%) is slightly below our estimated true probability (60%)
