How will France advance past Sweden?

Prediction market odds and sportsbook odds often diverge because they reflect different participant bases and incentive structures. Sportsbooks set odds to balance liability and lock in profit margins, while prediction markets like this one are driven by traders seeking to profit from accurate forecasts. This market aggregates dispersed information from many independent traders, which can sometimes surface edges that traditional sportsbooks miss. Comparing the odds here to major sportsbooks can reveal where the two venues disagree on the probability of each victory method, potentially signaling value for informed bettors.
