The model makes M. Petkovic the favorite with a 68% win probability, against D. Salazar's 32% — a solid favorite, though Salazar keeps real chances. Converted to odds, that probability is worth about @1.47; the offered odds are around @1.16 (a 86% implied), slightly below the market, so the model is a touch more cautious.
Several factors explain the number: 1663 vs 1531 — favorite by rating; challenger tier · 123 matches in the favorite's track record; these are softer, less-analyzed markets.
Read it with caution. This number does NOT come from the ATP factor model, but from the tour's real Elo: it ranks who is the favorite well, but it is a coarser estimate. Being the favorite is not being the winner: roughly 32 out of every 100 times Salazar wins. And above all, in Challenger/ITF the value edge is not proven live, so treat it as a reference, not an opportunity. Watch out for: Soft market: the value edge in Challenger/ITF is NOT proven live — treat it as an estimate, not an opportunity.; El rival arrastra una alerta (HIGH): D. Salazar retired mid-match (Retired) at M15 Szczawno. — resultado más incierto. This is informational analysis, not a betting recommendation. 18+ · play responsibly.
