These markets track the total number of goals scored during the regulation time of a soccer match between Fleetwood and Sheffield United. Each market corresponds to a different threshold of goals, determining whether the game is considered high-scoring or not based on that specific benchmark.
All markets resolve based on the total number of goals scored during the regulation time of the Fleetwood vs Sheffield United professional EFL Cup soccer game scheduled for September 16, 2026. Regulation time includes the standard 90 minutes plus any stoppage time added by the referee, but explicitly excludes any extra time periods or penalty shootouts. For each market, resolution to 'Yes' occurs only if the cumulative goals scored by both teams exceeds the specified threshold (0.5, 1.5, 2.5, 3.5, 4.5, or 5.5 goals). The secondary rules clarify that Kalshi holds no official affiliation with the governing league, and all related trademarks remain property of their respective owners.
