Sorry meant to say that the record's is home QF and WC's.I kinda went through it fast so i might have missed a a small few,when one the match did not have a spread,i counted the the decison straight up.and then 2 home wc's or qf or combo played each other inthe first round,i didnt count it.
To answer your question,some time the wildcards are solid favs,which in case we can still use the spread,and some times they are slight favs or dogs with no spread,hence money line could be used,which I did,in my exp a player has to be around a -150 to -170 fav for there to be a spread.But the majority by far of the wildcards seem to be significant dogs.
Odds portal is a useful site,but for some tourneys they wont list the AH for +/-games,just the sets,which is useless..which I know 5dimes has spreads for every ATP match,but it doest say on odds portal,wish there was a historical record for all speads dating back years,then we could do dome serious backtesting,know of any others that might have historical sprad records?
I should start keeping track from flashscore( an invaluable source) of this years records.
