Surface, class & serve
This is a hard-court match. On this surface over the last 12 months: Jiri Lehecka 67.6% (25–12); Alexander Blockx 60% (6–4). The Elo gap (+104 to Jiri Lehecka) is what drives the win probability — a class-and-history argument more than a recent-form one.
On serve, Jiri Lehecka 73% of first-serve points and 36% of return points; Alexander Blockx 78% of first-serve points and 34% of return points. Serve is the most stable quantity in tennis — whoever holds dictates how long the match runs.
Total games
Our model projects about 31.0 total games against the market line of 22.5 — so a lean toward the Over 22.5. Even a lopsided match can produce a high total when the surface helps servers: the underdog holds serve more often, and it takes more games to close a set.

Jiri Lehecka have won 4 of their last 5 (W-L-W-W-W, most recent first). Alexander Blockx have won 2 of their last 5 (D-L-W-D-W, most recent first).
The last 5 meetings (Jiri Lehecka–Alexander Blockx): 1–3, 2–0, 2–0, 2–0, 2–1. On a small sample the head-to-head is context, not a dominant signal — the model's depth carries the probability, not a handful of individual results.
What to watch
The model makes Jiri Lehecka the favourite at 70%, but at 30% Alexander Blockx is far from a write-off. The early stages often decide it: whoever sets the tempo first can swing the probabilities quickly. Watch whether the favourite asserts itself early or the game stays open — that is where the model's lean is won or lost.
