About This Event
This market will resolve to "Yes" if the listed club is determined as the runner-up of the Scottish Premiership for the 2026-27 season. Otherwise, it will resolve to "No". If at any point it becomes impossible for a listed participant to finish as runner-up of Scottish Premiership for the 2026-27 season per the rules of Scottish Premiership (e.g., the participant is eliminated), the corresponding market will resolve to "No". If multiple teams are declared as second-place finishers, this market will resolve in favor of the team whose listed name comes first alphabetically. If this event is cancelled, postponed after July 31, 2027, 11:59 PM ET, or a runner-up has not been declared within this timeframe, this market will resolve to "Other". The resolution source will be official information from the Scottish Premiership; however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.
This analysis is awaiting a background update, so its prices may be older than the odds above.

What the contract measures
Each market in this event asks whether a single named club will be runner-up in the 2026-27 Scottish Premiership. The rules state that the market "will resolve to "Yes" if the listed club is determined as the runner-up of the Scottish Premiership for the 2026-27 season. Otherwise, it will resolve to "No"" [1]. A club that becomes unable to finish runner-up, for example by being eliminated, resolves to "No" [1].
The wording has several details that matter when comparing contracts. If multiple teams are declared second-place finishers, the market resolves in favor of the team whose listed name comes first alphabetically [1]. If the event is cancelled, or postponed past the stated deadline, the market resolves to "Other," not "No" [1]. The listed end time is 2027-08-01T03:59:00.000Z. The rules also refer to postponement "after July 31, 2027, 11:59 PM ET" [1]. That is a rule deadline, not an announced event date.
Reading the snapshot
The saved observation was taken at 2026-10-19T06:00:06Z, and the source was retrieved at 2026-10-19T07:11:44Z [1]. The prices describe that moment only. They are not live quotes, executable prices, or verified probabilities.
The saved event includes 12 markets, and all 12 are included in the sample, so this is not a partial sample of the event's markets [1]. Each market shows a Yes price of 0.50 and a No price of 0.50 [1]. Because every Yes price is identical, this snapshot does not rank clubs against one another. The provider's sample warning also says that inclusion "does not establish that the providers list every possible real-world outcome" [1].
Volume is not included in the interpretation here, and the snapshot does not show how many traders hold any position.
What remains uncertain
The snapshot does not explain why prices are at 0.50, and it does not show any change over time. It contains no season results, standings, or news, so it cannot indicate how likely any club is to finish second. Prices from different markets in this set should not be compared as an arbitrage opportunity without current, executable data and a check of matching terms.

Saved Oct 19, 2026 UTCOverview
The contract belongs to a Polymarket event titled Scottish Premiership: 2026-27 Runner-Up [1]. Each market asks whether one named club will be the runner-up in the 2026-27 Scottish Premiership [1]. The saved event data includes 12 club markets, and all of them were included in the sample [1]. The rules state that a market resolves Yes if its listed club is determined to be the runner-up for the 2026-27 season, and No otherwise [1]. If a listed club can no longer finish as runner-up under Scottish Premiership rules, for example because it has been eliminated, that market resolves No [1]. If more than one club is declared second-place, the market resolves in favor of the team whose listed name comes first alphabetically [1]. If the event is cancelled, if it is postponed beyond the rule's cutoff, or if no runner-up has been declared within that timeframe, the market resolves Other [1]. The resolution source is official information from the Scottish Premiership, although a consensus of credible reporting may also be used [1]. The rules set a cutoff of July 31, 2027 at 11:59 PM ET, and the saved listed end time is 2027-08-01T03:59:00Z [1]. That date comes from the contract rules. It is not an announced date for the season's conclusion or for any event. For background on the season itself, a Wikipedia page describes 2026-27 as the 130th season of competitive football in Scotland. It says the domestic season began in mid-July with the first Scottish League Cup group stage matches, and that the first round of 2026-27 Scottish Premiership matches was played on the weekend of 1 and 2 August [2]. That page describes the season's start and does not establish the current league table or any final finishing positions.
Historical Context
The supplied sources describe the 2026-27 season as the 130th season of competitive football in Scotland, starting with League Cup group stage matches in mid-July and with the first Premiership round on 1 and 2 August [2]. A separate Wikipedia page describes a revival of the Tennent's Sixes, an indoor six-a-side tournament last held in 1993. The 2026 edition took place at Braehead Arena on 3 and 4 October 2026, with former players representing each of the 12 clubs in the 2026-27 Scottish Premiership, and it was organised by the Scottish Professional Football League and Braehead Arena [3]. That tournament is not part of the runner-up rules and does not affect the contract's resolution.
Why It Matters
The contract measures one outcome: whether a specific club finishes as runner-up in the 2026-27 Scottish Premiership, under the rules described above [1]. Because the rules also handle eliminations, ties, and cancellations, the contract's result depends on those conditions as well as on the final table [1]. At the observation time, every saved club market showed a price of 0.5 for Yes and 0.5 for No [1]. These are snapshot prices from one saved observation. They are not executable quotes, and they are not verified probabilities of any club finishing second. Equal prices across the saved markets do not indicate which club is more or less likely to be runner-up. The saved data does not include volume information, so it cannot show liquidity or how many traders were involved [1]. Different contracts with different prices are not, on their own, an arbitrage opportunity.
