Kalshi markets focus exclusively on total goals scored (over/under thresholds: 1.5, 2.5, 3.5, 4.5), while Polymarket markets focus on match outcome (Pumas win, draw, América win). These are fundamentally different resolution dimensions with no logical overlap.
Hero Tip:
Kalshi bettors are predicting goal volume; Polymarket bettors are predicting match result. A high-scoring draw (e.g., 2-2) resolves YES on Kalshi's 2.5+ and 3.5+ markets but NO on Polymarket's Pumas/América win markets and YES on the draw market. Do not assume correlation between platforms.
Critical Divergence Points:
Kalshi: Distinct stance: Kalshi resolves on total goals scored by both teams combined across four over/under thresholds (1.5, 2.5, 3.5, 4.5 goals). Each market independently resolves YES if the threshold is exceeded, NO otherwise. Quote: 'If America and Pumas UNAM collectively score more than X total goals... then the market resolves to Yes.'
Polymarket: Distinct stance: Polymarket resolves on three mutually exclusive match outcomes (Pumas win, draw, América win) determined by final score after 90 minutes plus stoppage time. Only one outcome per match can resolve YES. Quote: 'If Pumas de la UNAM wins, this market will resolve to Yes. Otherwise, this market will resolve to No.'
