Details
We find value on Anthony Susanto (away). The bookmarket lines price Stefan Menichella as the favorite at 1.82 despite Menichella having only one recorded match (0-1) and minimal match history, while Susanto has a larger sample (13 matches, 4-9) and recent activity in Bali. Susanto's greater match experience and recent local tournament exposure increase our confidence relative to the market's assessment. Using a conservative estimated true win probability of 55% for Susanto and the available quoted away price of 1.909, the bet produces positive expected value. The market-implied probability at 1.909 is ~52.4%, so our estimate implies a small but clear edge after accounting for the bookmaker margin/overround.
Key factors
- • Susanto has substantially more match experience (13 matches) vs Menichella (1 match)
