Kalshi
This market asks whether either the Dallas Cowboys or the New York Giants will be winning at halftime of their game on September 13, 2026, with a payout if neither team leads. Currently, Kalshi gives a 59.0% probability to “Will neither team win the 1st Half?” and a 41.0% probability to “Will Dallas win the 1st Half?”. The market will resolve based on the outcome of the first half of the DAL Cowboys vs NY Giants Pro Football game, as determined by official game results. Keep an eye on the game’s kickoff on September 13, 2026, as the first half’s performance will directly determine the market’s resolution.
The market resolves based on which team scores the most points in the first half of the specified professional football game. If the New York Giants score more points than the Dallas Cowboys in the first half, the 'New York G wins 1st Half' market resolves to Yes. Conversely, if Dallas scores more points than New York in the first half, the 'Dallas wins 1st Half' market resolves to Yes. If both teams score an equal number of points during the first half, the 'Tie 1st Half' market resolves to Yes, and all team-specific markets resolve to No. Only points scored during the first half count toward the outcome, and the market is independent of the teams’ overall game result.
Generally, prediction market odds often reflect a different perspective than those found at sportsbooks. Sportsbooks incorporate a 'vig' or commission into their odds, ensuring a profit margin, while this market allows traders to directly assess probabilities. If a significant discrepancy exists between prediction market prices and sportsbook odds, it may indicate differing opinions on the likelihood of a particular outcome. However, it's important to remember that both represent probabilities as perceived by different groups – bettors at sportsbooks versus traders on Kalshi.
On Kalshi, this market is priced through a continuous auction mechanism, where traders buy and sell contracts representing their belief in the probability of each outcome. The price of a contract reflects the market’s collective assessment of that outcome’s likelihood. As more traders participate, the price converges towards what the market believes is the true probability. On Kalshi, prices reflect that venue's order book, liquidity, and how traders price the outcome right now. This dynamic pricing allows for real-time adjustments based on new information and changing sentiment surrounding the Cowboys-Giants matchup.
This market resolves around Sep 14, 2026, with the outcome confirmed once the event is verifiable from credible public reporting. Specifically, the first half winner of the Cowboys-Giants game will determine the outcome. The result will be based on the official game statistics and final score reported by a trusted sports data source. Traders holding contracts on the winning team will be paid out according to the final market price at resolution, while those holding contracts on the losing team will forfeit their investment.
Several factors could influence this market leading up to and during the game. News regarding key player injuries to either the Cowboys or the Giants would likely cause significant price movement. Unexpected changes in weather conditions, such as heavy rain or strong winds, could also shift expectations. Furthermore, any pre-game analysis from reputable sports analysts predicting a strong performance from one team could impact trading activity. Finally, early game developments, such as a quick touchdown drive by one team, would immediately be reflected in the price of this market.
