Kalshi
This market on Kalshi tracks whether France will defeat England during regulation time in their FIFA World Cup 3rd Place Playoff match. England winning in regulation time is priced at 97.0%, while France winning in extra time is at 2.0%, according to Kalshi's assessment. The market resolves based on the official result of the playoff fixture scheduled for July 18, 2026. Watch the match outcome on July 18 to see whether the contest is decided within the standard 90 minutes plus stoppage time or extends beyond regulation.
The France vs England 3rd Place Playoff may be decided through three distinct methods. Regulation Time encompasses the standard 90 minutes of play plus all stoppage and injury time, excluding any extra time or penalty shootout. If the match remains tied after regulation, Extra Time is played, during which a team may advance before any penalty shootout occurs. If the score remains level after extra time, a Penalty Shootout determines the winner. Each market outcome corresponds to one specific method of advancement for the designated team. If the game is cancelled or rescheduled to over two weeks away, the market will resolve to a fair price in accordance with the rules.

Sportsbooks set lines to balance their book and manage risk, while prediction markets like this one are priced by traders who profit or lose based on accuracy. Prediction markets tend to incorporate information more dynamically and can be more efficient at pricing tail outcomes. For a matchup like this, comparing the implied probabilities across both venues can reveal where smart money is positioning itself and highlight potential value in either market.
