The model makes E. Svitolina the favorite with a 79% win probability, against A. Li's 21% — a conviction read: the model sees the match clearly leaning one way. Converted to odds, that probability is worth about @1.27; the offered odds are around @1.30 (a 77% implied), virtually the same as what the market prices in.
Several factors explain the number: #7 vs #30 (better ranked); 1-0 in favor; 65% career on the surface; 8/10 in recent matches.
Read it with perspective. Our probability is calibrated — when the model says 79%, 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 21 out of every 100 times Li 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.
