I think the problem is that you are trying to do comparison between two strings. Just convert the values to a int or something similar for comparison. So for example, change your comparison to something like the below:

 Convert.ToInt32(Eval("Team2Score"))) ? 'Winner':'' %>"><%# Eval("Team1")%>

Or you can just cast it to the appropriate type:

 (int)Eval("Team2Score")) ? 'Winner':'' %>"><%# Eval("Team1")%>

Hope this helps!
