Game by game

Blended market read: Mexico 47.0%, draw 29.6%, Korea Republic 23.3% — Unanimous (0.47pp cross-platform spread).

Blended market read: Scotland 18.1%, draw 26.5%, Morocco 55.4% — Tight Consensus (1.02pp cross-platform spread).

Blended market read: USA 60.4%, draw 21.7%, Australia 17.9% — Tight Consensus (1.6pp cross-platform spread).

Market favorites have held in 18 of 28 settled games (64%). Biggest shock so far: Qatar vs Switzerland — draw won against a 79.3% favorite (surprise index 86). On the 10 upset(s), the de-vigged books put the most weight on the actual result 6 time(s) — the case for reading every source, not one.



Methodology footnote

Six archetypes from the Tater playbook: Unanimous (<1pp platform spread), Tight Consensus (1–2pp), Quiet Edge (2–4pp), Camp Split (PMs and books disagree as groups), Lone Voice / Lone Hawk (one platform/book against the field). Sportsbook probabilities are de-vigged (proportional 3-way normalization). Prediction-market prices are traded order-book prices, treated as vig-free.
