Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Sport Timer at none against Interval Timer's shown. Sport Timer also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs fortnightly). Interval Timer's advantage is device support (4 vs 2) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.6). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
