Tymur Bieldiugin vs Maxime Chazal
Summary
Match Info
Analysis
Summary: We find small positive value on the home upset at 3.8 due to surface uncertainty and both players' recent poor form; estimated EV ~6.4% per unit.
Highlights
- • Current market heavily favors Chazal (1.252) but may underprice upset risk on grass
- • Min required odds for value are 3.571; current 3.8 exceeds that
Pros
- + Positive expected value at current odds (EV ~0.064)
- + High model uncertainty on grass increases chance for underdog value
Cons
- - Both players show poor recent form and limited grass data, raising variance
- - Chazal's larger match sample and slightly better career record mean risk remains significant
Details
The market strongly favors Chazal at 1.252 (implied ~79.9%). However, both players show limited recent form and most of their recorded matches are on clay/hard rather than grass, increasing model uncertainty and the chance of an upset. Given Chazal's recent losses and Bieldiugin's comparable Challenger-level experience, we estimate Tymur Bieldiugin's true win probability meaningfully above the market-implied 26.3% for the 3.8 price. At our estimated probability (0.28) the 3.8 quote offers positive expected value (EV = 0.064 per unit). We therefore recommend a bet on the home underdog only because the current decimal price exceeds our min-required odds threshold (3.571).
Key factors
- • Both players primarily have clay/hard match histories; grass form is uncertain, increasing upset potential
- • Chazal is market favorite but shows recent losses and inconsistent recent results
- • Bieldiugin has fewer matches but comparable Challenger-level experience; variance favors underdog value
