Details
The market prices Luca Wiedenmann as the clear favorite (implied ~65.7%) while Mathieu Scaglia is offered at 2.39 (implied ~41.8%). Our read of the limited data shows both players with weak recent records on similar surfaces, but Scaglia has a marginally better career record (3-7 vs 2-5) and more match data to judge, suggesting the contest is closer than the market implies. Given the small sample sizes and both players' recent losses on clay, we conservatively estimate Scaglia's true win probability at 45.0%, which is meaningfully higher than the market-implied 41.8%, producing positive expected value at the available 2.39 price.
Key factors
