!Returning from a long layoff (42d) — possible rustiness
The model makes N. Mejia the favorite with a 51% win probability, against J. Fearnley's 49% — a tight match, without a wide margin. Converted to odds, that probability is worth about @1.96; the offered odds are around @3.40 (a 29% implied), slightly above the market, so the model is a touch more optimistic.
Several factors explain the number: #129 vs #110; 2/10 in recent matches; model 51% vs market 29% → the model sees it as more likely than the odds.
Read it with perspective. Our probability is calibrated — when the model says 51%, 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 49 out of every 100 times Fearnley 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. Watch out for: Returning from a long layoff (42d) — possible rustiness.
