Bookmaker odds imply ~66% win probability for the Raiders: moneyline –198, spread –3.5 points. Las Vegas starts with Kirk Cousins (newly signed NFL veteran) under new head coach Klint Kubiak (former Seattle OC). Miami starts Malik Willis as QB — a backup with limited starting experience. Both franchises overhauled leadership in the offseason, making Week 1 results harder to predict; however, the QB disparity clearly favors Las Vegas. No direct Polymarket/Kalshi contracts found for this individual game.

Katzberg is the overwhelming favorite: defending Olympic champion (Paris 2024) and World Champion (Tokyo 2025) with a North American and championship record of 84.70m — the longest hammer throw in 20 years. worldathletics.org dedicated a separate preview article ('Katzberg hammers path to Ultimate honour') rating him as the dominant title defender. No rival shows comparable recent form. Sportsbooks imply ~78–82% based on world rankings and form. The hammer final takes place on Day 1 (September 11, Session 1).

Hocker is the reigning world champion over 5000m (Tokyo 2025, 12:58.30). The field is exceptionally strong: Ingebrigtsen (NOR, PB ~12:48) is a potential favorite but must manage his energy for the 1500m final two days later (September 13) — a structural advantage for Hocker. Also present: Krop (KEN), Yihune (ETH), Fisher and Young (both USA). No direct market quotes available; in a 10+ world-class field, individual win probabilities are structurally limited. Hocker as reigning champion with a tactical edge versus a load-managed Ingebrigtsen is narrow nominal favorite.
