1. A method for displaying a plurality of listings for scored contests on a display screen using a media guidance application, comprising:
- generating for display a listing of a first scored contest having a first score;
generating for display a listing of a second scored contest having a second score;
processing a real-time data feed associated with the first scored contest to determine the first score at a point of progress of the first scored contest;
extrapolating a first likelihood that the first scored contest will have an outcome based, at least in part, on a cross-referencing of the first score with outcome determination criteria, wherein cross-referencing the first score with outcome determination criteria comprises retrieving a percentage of historical scored contests of a corresponding type as the first scored contest with a corresponding score as the first scored contest at a corresponding point of progress as the first scored contest that resulted in the outcome;
ordering the display of the listing of the first scored contest and the listing of the second scored contest on the display screen based, at least in part, on the likelihood;
extrapolating a second likelihood that the second scored contest will have the outcome based, at least in part, on a cross-referencing of the second score with the outcome determination criteria;
comparing the first likelihood to the second likelihood; and
in response to determining the first likelihood is greater than the second likelihood, demoting the listing of the first scored contest in the order displayed on the display screen.
