Sebastian Baez v Tomas Machac

Match preview, prediction and odds

Our pick

LeanWON
T. Machac to win 2-01.66
Price too short today - wait for 1.79 or bigger · our chance 56% · market 19/81, us 16/84

T. Machac is 6-4 over the last ten and 16-15 on hard this season. S. Baez is 3-7 over the last ten and 25-16 on hard this season. The head to head is S. Baez 0-2.

The pick is T. Machac to win 2-0. We make it a 56% chance, so it is only worth backing at 1.79 or bigger. At 1.66 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.
