Markets to Avoid

Total Games Over 21.5:Model estimate (58%) undercuts implied probability (64.5%), indicating the market is pricing a higher likelihood of Over than our model supports — no edge exists.

Game Handicap Cilic -3.5:Wide odds spread (Altmaier +3.5 at 1.45 vs Cilic -3.5 at 2.50) reflects high uncertainty. Clay significantly narrows the handicap; insufficient edge to justify 2.50 odds.

Total Sets 2 sets (Under 2.5):Market overprices straight sets on clay. Implied 66.7% at 1.50 odds vs 60% prediction. Altmaier's 50% three-set frequency suggests resilience.

Pre-match flagged 7 avoid-market areas; caution remains warranted in high-variance spots.
