Nor does a 15 to 1 shot seem like a “favorite”.
I’d say there are no favorites and you could move the contender status to that first group essentially.

Thats the way of sports. I think if a team is objectively a 1-in-10 chance to win the cup before the season starts they're probably seen as consensus the best team in the league.
I see where youre coming from but there is a huge difference between a 2% chance and a 10% chance. So I wouldn't lump them together.
Favourite group: 50-65% chance of winning the cup
contender group: 35-50% chance of winning the cup
Bottom feeder group: 0-5% chance of winning cup
