PredictionHero - Resolution Divergence Alerts (RDA)

Unified Resolution Criteria (Consistent across platforms)

Both Polymarket and Predict define the same resolution criteria and use the same fallback data sources.Primary resolution logic: Official statistics of the event as recognized by the governing body or event organizers, with fallback to Flashscore, Sofascore, and consensus credible reporting.

Core resolution logic:

The first team to score within the first 90 minutes of regular play plus stoppage time determines the winner.
If neither team scores within the first 90 minutes plus stoppage time, the market resolves to 'Neither'.
Postponed matches will have the market remain open until completion.
Canceled matches (with no makeup game) resolve to 'Neither'.

Edge cases & clarifications:

Data Availability: If official statistics are unavailable within 2 hours of the match's conclusion, Flashscore is used. If Flashscore is unavailable, Sofascore is used. If neither is available, a consensus of credible reporting is used. If no acceptable data is available within 24 hours, the market resolves 50-50 (or to 'Draw' where applicable).
Score Revisions: Revisions to officially declared final scores made *after* market resolution will not be accounted for.

Timing: Resolution will occur as soon as the official result (or a valid fallback source) confirms the first team to score, or confirms that neither team scored within the specified timeframe.Our PredictionHero Resolution Divergence Alerts (RDA) are there to help users identify potential differences across platforms.

Frequently asked questions

Prediction market odds, like those found for this market, often reflect the collective wisdom of a diverse group of traders, potentially offering a different perspective than traditional sportsbooks. Sportsbooks set odds based on models and expert analysis, while prediction markets aggregate individual predictions. This can lead to discrepancies, especially when significant information isn't yet widely reflected in sportsbook lines. Generally, prediction markets tend to be more efficient at incorporating new information quickly, but sportsbook odds may be more readily available and offer different betting options. Comparing the two can be a valuable strategy for informed decision-making.
