Another week, another blistering schedule of Russian table tennis on our hands. These guys are playing upward of five matches a day— not cumulatively, I mean each player. I suppose it's not the most physically taxing sport, but nevertheless.
After sifting through some hard-to-find stats, I've found a match that I reckon has some value. Last Friday, we got down on a big favorite on a roll who I felt was not favored enough. He kept rolling.
Today, it's a slight underdog at PointsBet has my attention. By the way, you can get your feet wet in the table tennis circuit with a couple $100 risk-free bets at PointsBet. Sometimes it's scary betting a new sport, you know?

Vitalii Bazilevskii vs. Viktor Ivanov
- Bazilevskii: -135
- Ivanov: +104
- 4:30 p.m. ET
The man with six i's in his name is favored, but Ivanov at plus-money looks good to me. He's lost four of five to Bazilevskii this past week, but since the beginning of March, it's actually Ivanov with a 17-11 H2H edge.
When we take a look at their recent form, V-Baz (I've decided he needs a nickname) is 9-11 since last Friday, but once again it's Ivanov who's been better at 14-9. Is the wrong guy favored??
Perhaps V-Baz will keep his very recent hot streak against Ivanov going, but after taking a look at the bigger picture, Ivanov at plus-money looks like the only choice for me in this one.
