!Unfavorable head-to-head record (1-2)
The model makes M. Andreeva the favorite with a 55% win probability, against M. Kostyuk's 45% — a tight match, without a wide margin. Converted to odds, that probability is worth about @1.81; the offered odds are around @1.71 (a 58% implied), slightly below the market, so the model is a touch more cautious.
Several factors explain the number: #6 vs #11 (better ranked); 7/10 in recent matches; 1-2 against; 67% career on the surface.
Read it with perspective. Our probability is calibrated — when the model says 55%, that outcome happens roughly that percentage of the time, with ~64% out-of-sample accuracy — but being the favorite is not being the winner: roughly 45 out of every 100 times Kostyuk 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: Unfavorable head-to-head record (1-2).
