Fares Zakaria v Niels Visker

Match preview, prediction and odds

Our pick

LeanWON
N. Visker to win1.08
Price too short today - wait for 1.14 or bigger · our chance 88% · market 12/88, us 12/88

N. Visker is 4-6 over the last ten and 22-11 on hard this season. F. Zakaria is 7-3 over the last ten and 29-18 on hard this season. F. Zakaria retired from a match in the last month.

The pick is N. Visker to win. We make it a 88% chance, so it is only worth backing at 1.14 or bigger. At 1.08 that is not there yet - leave it, or wait for the price to drift in-play (an early break against usually does it).

An opinion from the numbers, not a guarantee. 19+, bet responsibly.

Ranking points fall off a year after they are earned, so a player who went deep here last year must match it or drop in the rankings. That shapes effort in a way the price does not always show.
