This event group covers a Major League Soccer match between New York City FC (home) and Colorado Rapids SC scheduled for March 14, 2026. Markets span total goals scored (over/under thresholds) and match outcome (win/loss/draw), all measured within 90 minutes of regular play plus stoppage time.
Kalshi offers multiple total goals thresholds (1.5, 2.5, 3.5, 4.5) while Polymarket offers outcome-based markets (win/loss/draw). Both measure the same 90-minute window plus stoppage time, but they are fundamentally different market types (goal volume vs. match result).
Hero Tip:
These are not contradictory—they measure different things. Treat Kalshi's four markets as separate SKUs with a natural hierarchy: if >3.5 resolves Yes, then >2.5 and >1.5 also resolve Yes. Polymarket's outcome markets are independent. Cross-platform arbitrage is possible only if you are comparing outcome-derived goal counts (e.g., a 2-1 result implies >1.5 and >2.5 on Kalshi, and a win on Polymarket). No settlement conflict exists.
Critical Divergence Points:
Kalshi: Four total goals over/under markets at thresholds 1.5, 2.5, 3.5, and 4.5. All measure combined Colorado + NYCFC goals in 90 minutes plus stoppage time. Each resolves Yes if the threshold is exceeded. Quote: 'If Colorado and New York City collectively score more than [X] total goals... then the market resolves to Yes.'
Polymarket: Three outcome markets: NYCFC win, Colorado win, and draw. Each resolves based on the final match result (not goal volume) within 90 minutes plus stoppage time. Postponement keeps markets open; cancellation resolves draw to Yes, others to No. Quote: 'If the game is canceled entirely, with no make-up game, this market will resolve [to Yes for draw, No for win markets].'
