One prediction market prices this story:

  • Israel — resolved “No” on 4 Oct 2026. The market resolves to Yes if Israel wins the UEFA Nations League match against Ireland after 90 minutes of regular play, including stoppage time. It resolves to No if the game ends in a draw or if Ireland wins. Readers often mistakenly include extra time or penalty shootouts when determining the winner.

Odds are the market's probability that the outcome happens, updated every few minutes. They are information about what traders expect, not a forecast we make and not investment advice.
