Yesterday's board, checked

Every signal is checked against the next day's draw. Saturday's semi-final board gave us the clearest result of the week in Lisbon.

Lisbon: both wrong-side alerts held. Gulin won as a 2.75 underdog against a favourite rated 27 points below him. Ritschard won at 2.00. The two flagged underdogs now meet in today's final.
Osaka: Krueger won as a 2.30 underdog while holding the form edge, and she is in today's final.

Two names to watch. In Tokyo, one player is a lower-rated favourite for the third board in a row. In Vienna, the favourite in the 26-point match rates 40 and the underdog rates 66, yet the prices are almost level (1.80 vs 1.91).
