Details
We see value on Oceane Babel at 2.39. The market implies a 41.8% chance for Babel (1/2.39) while our model-based read, using only the provided player profiles, assigns Babel a substantially higher win probability. Babel has a long, positive career sample (559-507 in 1,066 matches, career win rate ~52.4%) versus Fiona Ganz's small sample and weaker record (10-21 in 31 matches, win rate ~32.3%). Both players show recent losses in the provided logs, but Babel's extensive experience across surfaces (including clay) and higher career win rate suggest she is underpriced here. At our estimated true probability of 48.0%, the minimum fair decimal odds are ~2.083; the current 2.39 offers positive expected value. We therefore recommend the home side given the available price and the clear experience/sample advantage shown in the research.
