The completed 2026 World Cup material is historical research, rather than a feed for upcoming matches. Its knockout bracket follows actual winners and should not be read as the original model forecast bracket. Model probabilities and archived Polymarket snapshots can have different timestamps. Read the forecast run and selection rules before interpreting the reported ROI, which depends on the archive’s stated selection and price assumptions. ### Who it is for - Football-model researchers. - Users studying model-probability and market-price comparisons. - Readers auditing a completed tournament forecast. ## Research coverage and methods - **Team form and match model** Review the last 10 international matches in most-recent-first order and the Dixon–Coles-based match-probability approach. - **Bracket and advancement** Follow the actual knockout progression and compare teams’ estimated chances of going through. - **Tournament and award markets** Explore longer-horizon tournament outcomes and individual awards alongside match research. - **Picks and performance** Inspect the published selection and ROI record with its stated price and selection assumptions. - **Methodology and source trail** Read definitions in the methodology and glossary, and trace linked code, source inputs and archived runs. ## Research tasks ### Audit a forecast Select a match, inspect available form inputs and the archived run, then compare its recorded probability with the outcome. ### Study market selection Read the archived Polymarket comparison and the selection rule before interpreting the performance record. ### Reuse the method Follow inputs and model assumptions through the linked repository instead of treating an expired tournament pick as a current signal. ## Pricing and total cost The public archive, methodology and linked code are accessible without a listed subscription. ## Research inputs and access 1. Open the report and methodology. 2. Choose Matches, Futures or Awards and identify the archived forecast run. 3. Review input form and model assumptions. 4.
