The model makes R. Safiullin the favorite with a 62% win probability, against F. Sun's 38% — a solid favorite, though Sun keeps real chances. Converted to odds, that probability is worth about @1.61; the offered odds are around @1.19 (a 84% implied), slightly below the market, so the model is a touch more cautious.
Several factors explain the number: #102 vs #314 (better ranked); model 62% vs market 84% → the model sees it as less likely than the odds; 6/10 in recent matches; 23d vs opponent's 1d.
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 Sun 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.
