How to Read H2H Records
Raw head-to-head numbers tell part of the story but rarely the full picture. A player who leads 10–3 overall but has lost the last four meetings is not necessarily the favourite. When analysing an H2H for betting, four factors matter most:
Current surface
Form on the surface in play. Clay, grass and hard reward different games — a record can flip entirely by surface.
Last 12 months
Recent meetings outweigh old ones. A rivalry can swing fast as players develop or decline.
The tournament
Record at this specific event. Some players simply own certain venues and conditions.
Form & fitness
Injury or a form dip makes earlier results less relevant. Context is everything.
