This market will resolve to "Yes" if the listed club is determined as the runner-up of the USL Championship for the 2026 season. Otherwise, it will resolve to "No". If at any point it becomes impossible for a listed participant to finish as runner-up of USL Championship for the 2026 season per the rules of USL Championship (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 December 31, 2026, 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 USL Championship; however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.Multiple USL Championship clubs remain tightly bunched in the 2026 runner-up market because no team has pulled clear separation in either conference amid balanced scheduling and midseason results. Eastern leaders like Tampa Bay Rowdies, Charleston Battery, Detroit City FC, and Louisville City FC sit within a few points of one another, while Western sides including Orange County SC, San Antonio FC, and New Mexico United trade results weekly. Recent form swings, injury recoveries, and roster adjustments continue to shuffle playoff positioning without establishing a clear hierarchy. This parity, combined with the top-eight playoff format in each conference, sustains broad trader consensus that second place could go to any of several contenders through the final weeks.
