Over 1st Set Games: 75.00% – A high probability suggests that the first set will be closely contested, possibly exceeding 7 games as both players aim to establish dominance early. Under 1st Set Games: 56.70% – While less likely than the over bet, this indicates a chance for one player to secure an early advantage, potentially through superior service games or unforced errors from the opponent. Tie Break in 1st Set (No): 90.30% – The odds favor a decisive first set without requiring a tiebreak, pointing to one player managing to break serve or hold their own serve consistently. Under 2.5 Sets: 75.10% – Similar to the under 3.5 sets prediction, this suggests a match that could extend into a third set, reflecting the competitive nature of both players. Tie Break in Match (No): 60.70% – There is a moderate chance that the match will be decided without a tiebreak, possibly through straight-sets victories or one player pulling away decisively in later sets. Total Games 3-Way (Under 22): 57.10% – This indicates an expectation for fewer than 22 total games in the match, suggesting efficient play with minimal breaks of serve. Total Games 2-Way (Under 22.5): 51.10% – The odds are closely split here, reflecting uncertainty about whether the match will stay under or exceed this total game count.
