Typically, prediction market odds reflect a different kind of wisdom than sportsbook odds. Sportsbooks set lines to balance action and incorporate a profit margin, while this market represents the collective prediction of informed traders. Often, prediction markets are more accurate than traditional betting markets, especially when considering the potential for significant news or information to emerge before the event. However, sportsbook odds can provide a useful benchmark for understanding the broader public perception of the game's potential for going into overtime, and can sometimes differ substantially from this market.
