Edmen Shahbazyan · 59%

Moderate lean — this matchup has enough uncertainty to keep confidence in the middle range.

Prediction

Shahbazyan gets a moderate lean because of his cleaner long-range offense and ability to hurt opponents in combinations. Ferreira is a serious power threat, so this pick depends on Shahbazyan controlling distance and not accepting extended pocket exchanges.
