Fair game spread: Fritz by about 4.5 games; fair total 21.5 games. From an exact model of tennis scoring (points, games, tiebreaks, sets) fed the win chance above, fitted to the real game counts of recent ATP matches on hard, with room for the day's form, so blowouts and long matches show up about as often as they really do.

No line on this page yet. Sportsbooks price most tour matches once the order of play is out; we take a snapshot of tennis lines only when our shared odds budget allows. Game spread: "-3.5" wins if that player takes at least 4 more games than the other over the whole match. Total games counts every game, a tiebreak as one. If a player retires, most books settle the moneyline once a set is complete but void the spread and total; rules differ, so read your book's.

Advantages Why Taylor Fritz can win

  1. More matches on hard: 488 to Molcan's 70
  2. Stronger overall record: an all-surface rating of 1909 to Molcan's 1754
  3. Fresher legs: 28 games played in the last three days to Molcan's 74
  4. Head to head: leads 1-0 in tour-level meetings since 2010
  5. Better on hard: a hard-court rating of 1860 to Molcan's 1674
  6. Seeded 11; Molcan is unseeded
  7. Simulation: Fritz wins in straight sets 57% of the time

Disadvantages Why Taylor Fritz may not

  1. One break of serve can decide a set, and a tiebreak is close to a coin flip
  2. Injuries and retirements: about one tour match in 35 ends with a player quitting mid-match, and how a bet settles then depends on the sportsbook's rules
  3. Conditions: wind, heat, altitude, a new ball or a night session can change how a match plays
  4. Ratings lag: a player coming back from injury or on a sudden run is rated on older results
  5. Upset odds: Molcan wins about 1 time in 5, and takes at least a set 43% of the time
