How To Play

Predict the score for each fixture before that match starts. Your predictions update group tables, knockout qualifiers, and your personal points total.

Scoring

  • Correct exact score: 3 points
  • Correct match outcome only: 1 point
  • Incorrect outcome: 0 points

The match outcome means home win, draw, or away win for group matches. For knockout matches, the outcome is the team that progresses.

Prediction Deadlines

Each prediction locks when the match starts. Locked predictions cannot be changed, even if a user remains on the page after kickoff.

Knockout Penalties

If you predict a knockout match as a draw, you must also choose which team wins on penalties. That selected team progresses in your bracket.

Group Tables

Group standings are calculated from your predicted scores. Automatic qualifying places are highlighted in gold, and third place is highlighted in blue while predictions are available.

Leaderboard

The leaderboard ranks users by confirmed prediction points. Rankings may change when official results are added, corrected, or recalculated.

Corrections

If fixture data, kickoff times, results, or scoring calculations are corrected, points and leaderboard positions may be recalculated.
