WORLD CUP SCORE PREDICTOR RULES

Predict the scores of World Cup 2026 fixtures for a chance of winning £10,000 and secure bragging rights against friends!

THE BASICS

  • Win the grand prize: Every single correct score you predict earns you one entry into our tournament prize draw to win £10,000. Simply, the more scores you nail, the higher your chances of scooping the dosh!
  • Climb the Leaderboards: Track your performance on the global leaderboard, your club league and national league. You can also create or join mini leagues to play against friends, family and colleagues.
  • Just for fun: Note that leaderboards and mini leagues are for ranking and bragging rights only - there are no prizes.

HOW TO PREDICT

  • Enter your scores: Click on any match card and type in your predicted score (0–9) for each team. The cursor will automatically move from the ‘home’ team to the ‘away’ team as you type.
  • Popular predictions: Short on time? Click one of the 'Popular Predictions’ on a match card to instantly enter a score. 
  • Lock deadlines: Predictions can be entered, changed or saved any time, right up until the official kick-off of each fixture. You can predict as many or as few matches as you like.
  • Tournament Structure: Fixtures are split into eight distinct Matchdays, covering every round from the opening group stage games to the World Cup final.

SCORING SYSTEM

Points are used to determine your rankings across the leaderboards. Matches are evaluated at the end of normal time and, where applicable, extra time (including injury time). Penalty shootouts do not count.

Prediction Result Points Awarded
Correct outcome +1 point (Predicting the winner or a draw, but missing the exact score)
Correct score +3 points total (Nailing the exact scoreline—gives you 1 point for the outcome plus 2 bonus points)

BOOST YOUR SCORE

  • Double Down booster: Once per Matchday, you can play your Double Down booster on a single fixture to have a chance to gain two entries in the prize draw and score double points in our leagues (up to six points total). 

MINI LEAGUES

  • Create or join: Setup free Public leagues (searchable in the League Hub) or Private leagues (accessible via a unique PIN or invite link) at any point up until the final Matchday.
  • Real names: Unlike our fantasy game, all players on the score predictor leaderboards are listed by their real names rather than a team name.
  • Late joiners: Friends can join your Mini League even after the tournament has started. Their existing points will automatically carry over into your league table.
  • Tie-breaker: If players finish tied on points at the end of the tournament, the manager who registered for the game earliest takes the higher position.
