›Recent form: 5/10 in recent matches
›Head-to-head: 1-0 in favor
›Model 62% vs market 70% → the model sees it as less likely than the odds
The model makes K. Khachanov the favorite with a 62% win probability, against A. Kovacevic's 38% — a solid favorite, though Kovacevic keeps real chances. Converted to odds, that probability is worth about @1.60; the offered odds are around @1.42 (a 70% implied), slightly below the market, so the model is a touch more cautious.
Several factors explain the number: #39 vs #95 (better ranked); 5/10 in recent matches; 1-0 in favor; model 62% vs market 70% → the model sees it as less likely than the odds.
Read it with perspective. Our probability is calibrated — when the model says 62%, that outcome happens roughly that percentage of the time, with ~65% out-of-sample accuracy — but being the favorite is not being the winner: roughly 38 out of every 100 times Kovacevic wins. The model also tends to agree with the market, so the odds already capture almost all the edge: don't take it as a sure value.
