Market context

Colombia and Costa Rica will meet in a FIFA International Friendly on 1 June at 7:00 PM ET. The match carries significance for both squads as preparation for upcoming Copa América and World Cup qualifying windows. Colombia, ranked 16th globally, arrives with mixed recent form—three wins and two draws across their last five outings, though they suffered a 2–1 loss to Paraguay in March. Costa Rica, positioned 31st, has struggled more visibly, winning just one of their past five fixtures and conceding eight goals in that span. Colombian manager Néstor Lorenzo has maintained squad continuity despite injuries to key players, whilst Costa Rica's coaching situation remains unsettled following inconsistent results in qualifying.

The 100% implied probability reflects the market's assessment that additional betting markets on this fixture will materialise before settlement. Historical precedent suggests friendlies between CONMEBOL and CONCACAF sides routinely attract expanded market offerings—particularly when scheduled during international windows and involving nations with established betting audiences. Colombia's higher ranking and stronger recent trajectory have typically translated into deeper liquidity and more granular market options in comparable fixtures.

Traders should monitor squad announcements through late May, as both federations typically confirm final rosters within a week of kickoff. Recent reporting from ESPN Deportes indicates potential absences for Colombia due to club commitments in European leagues, which could influence market depth. Costa Rica's availability of key defensive players will similarly shape how sportsbooks structure secondary markets around goals, corners, and card counts.

Methodology

We track Colombia vs. Costa Rica - More Markets on the five venues with material liquidity for prediction markets. Live odds come from the Polymarket Polygon order book — the only source that ships real-time data under an open licence. For Kalshi, Betfair and Manifold we list platform attributes (fee, KYC, settlement, payment) instead of fabricated odds, because their APIs use non-comparable contract definitions.
