Details
We find value backing Gianluca Cadenasso at the current away price (2.55). The market implies a win probability of ~39.2% for Cadenasso (1/2.55). From the provided profiles, Cadenasso has a substantially stronger career record (29-16) versus Napolitano (10-14) and has shown consistent form through the recent Biella matches. Napolitano has some grass experience, which narrows the gap, but the weight of career win-rate and recent results leads us to estimate Cadenasso's true win probability materially higher than the market's 39%. Using a conservative estimated true probability of 47%, the expected value at 2.55 is positive (EV ≈ +0.199 per unit staked), indicating value at current prices.
