Likely

Likely picks are favourites whose chances of winning we consider to be at least as high as the market does. They land more often than value bets, but short odds mean that one loss wipes out several wins. The edge in this band is generally around zero or negative, because the odds include the bookmaker's margin – the long-term return is at market level, not above it.

Linda Noskova – Ekaterina Alexandrova: Linda Noskova to win @ 1.30

Statistics. Noskova has won nine of her last ten matches and Alexandrova six. Noskova beat Golubic 6–2, 6–1 in Beijing in 55 minutes, while Alexandrova defeated Shnaider 3–6, 6–4, 6–3 in 1 hr 54 mins; their head-to-head record is 1–1. Situation. WTA data confirms the match is scheduled for Tuesday, and there has been no withdrawal announcement. Noskova comes into the outdoor hard-court match with a clearly lighter workload from the previous round. Estimate. Linda Noskova: 74% · Ekaterina Alexandrova: 26% Why we are betting. Noskova's stronger recent form and clearly lighter match workload in the previous round lift her estimate slightly above the market's fair 73.2%. However, odds of 1.30 are still tight and do not make this a value bet.
