Sweden vs. Tunisia - Exact Score

Platform comparison

Active sub-markets

Market context

Sweden and Tunisia will meet in the group stage of the 2026 FIFA World Cup on 14 June at 10:00 PM ET. The market prices an exact-score outcome at 0% implied probability across the prediction-market platform, suggesting traders view the listed scorelines as collectively unlikely or that liquidity remains sparse ahead of the fixture. This contrasts with typical sportsbook handling of World Cup group matches, where exact-score betting pools usually attract modest but consistent volume. The settlement window closes at 02:00 UTC on 15 June, allowing roughly four hours post-match for final confirmation.

Historical precedent for Sweden–Tunisia encounters is limited; the nations have not met competitively since 1990. Sweden's recent World Cup record shows mixed group-stage results—elimination in 2018 despite competitive displays, and advancement in 2022 from a relatively weak group. Tunisia has qualified for five World Cups but has never progressed beyond the group stage, with goal differentials typically tight. These patterns suggest neither side is likely to produce a dominant scoreline, which may explain why traders have assigned zero probability to specific outcomes rather than distributing confidence across a range of plausible results.

Key variables include squad availability and tactical approach. Sweden's squad depth in attack remains uncertain pending injury updates through May 2026; Tunisia's reliance on a narrow pool of European-based players creates dependency on fitness confirmation closer to the tournament. Fixture scheduling within the group—whether either team plays their final match knowing results elsewhere—could influence attacking intent. Traders should monitor official FIFA group-stage draw details and any late squad announcements, as these directly affect expected goal-scoring patterns and the likelihood of reaching any specific scoreline.

Methodology

Methodologically we separate two layers: the live probability (Polymarket mid-price) and the platform attributes (fee, KYC, settlement currency, payment rails). The odds column is filled only where we have clean data — that avoids the made-up numbers that get a network demoted when search engines cross-check against the source venue.

Resolution & payout

Settlement runs on-chain. Polymarket's contract logic separates YES and NO shares as conditional tokens; at resolution the winning share lifts to $1.00 and the losing one to $0. The outcome input comes from the UMA Optimistic Oracle, which secures against bad resolution with a bond + dispute window.

Once finalised, the smart contract pays USDC to the holders' wallets within minutes — no withdrawal fees beyond Polygon network gas. Kalshi settles in USD via CFTC clearance, Betfair in account currency net of commission, Manifold in play-money mana with no cash-out.
