Several factors could shift odds in this market before resolution. Early set performance—breaks of serve, momentum swings, or tactical adjustments—often triggers significant repricing as traders update their win probability estimates.

Additionally, pre-match news such as recent form, head-to-head records, or player statements can move the market before the first serve.
