Probability

75%

Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone holds the world record in the women's 400m hurdles (50.37s, 2024) and has been the dominant athlete in this discipline for years – unbeaten at World Championships and Olympics since 2022. According to NBC Sports and the World Athletics Ultimate Championship entry lists, she holds automatic invitations for both the 400m and 400m hurdles in Budapest. Competition comes primarily from Femke Bol (NED) and Anna Cockrell (USA), whom she has clearly outpaced recently. No Polymarket/Kalshi market for this specific final; probability based on historical dominance and confirmed participation. Slight uncertainty due to isolated sources questioning her 2026 season plans.

Verdict: Miss

Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone hat das Finale nicht gewonnen – sie hat es nicht einmal bestritten. Sie hatte Anfang 2026 ihre Schwangerschaft öffentlich bekannt gegeben und sagte die gesamte Wettkampfsaison 2026 ab (Quelle: Canadian Running Magazine, ESPN, Yahoo Sports). Die Vorhersage war damit fundamental falsch, da die Athletin gar nicht angetreten ist. Das Finale der Frauen 400 m Hürden beim World Athletics Ultimate Championship Budapest 2026 (12. September 2026) gewann stattdessen Anna Cockrell (USA) mit 52,13 s, nachdem die bis dahin führende Emma Zapletalová (CZE) in der Schlussphase über eine Hürde stolperte und auf Platz 6 zurückfiel (Quelle: bluewin.ch, Suchergebnisse World Athletics).

Manchester City defeats SSC Napoli — UEFA Champions League 2026/27 League Phase Matchday 5 (Etihad Stadium, Manchester, 24 November 2026, 21:00 CET, confirmed via UEFA or BBC Sport by 25 November 2026)

Manchester City (2026/27 record: 5-1) host SSC Napoli on 24 November 2026 at the Etihad. Bookmaker odds imply ~80% for a City home win (quote ~1/4); a Napoli away win trades at ~10/1 (~9% implied). Statistical models assign City 66% win probability and a draw 18%. Napoli have never won away against a Premier League top-6 side in this Champions League season. Market anchor: bookmaker odds imply 79–80%; own estimate follows the conservative model value of 66%, as Napoli historically respond better to continental pressure than their domestic form alone suggests.

Borussia Dortmund defeats SV 07 Elversberg — Bundesliga Matchday 9 (Signal Iduna Park, 7 November 2026, confirmed via bundesliga.com or DFL by 7 November 2026, 18:00 CET)

BVB sits 2nd in the Bundesliga after 8 matchdays (18 pts) with the best defence in the league (6 goals conceded). Bookmaker odds for a Dortmund home win imply ~79% (quote ~1.26); statistical models put BVB at 74.96%. Expected Goals: BVB 2.47 xG vs. Elversberg 0.81 xG. Elversberg failed to score in three consecutive away fixtures — no other club in the division is currently as barren on the road. Probability set slightly below market implied to account for Elversberg's proven giant-killing capacity this season.

RB Leipzig defeats FC Augsburg — Bundesliga Matchday 9 (Red Bull Arena, Leipzig, 7 November 2026, confirmed via bundesliga.com or DFL by 7 November 2026, 18:00 CET)

RB Leipzig have never lost a Bundesliga home fixture against FC Augsburg (10 games: 9 wins, 1 draw). Augsburg are currently on a 6-match winless run (3 draws, 3 losses) — the longest such drought in the top flight right now. Winger Antonio Nusa is in excellent form; a Leipzig win would set a Bundesliga record against Augsburg. Bookmaker odds imply ~60% (quote ~1.65); the unblemished home record and Augsburg's poor form justify raising the estimate to 65%.
