Make Your Predictions

Go to the Bracket page. You'll see 12 groups (Aโ€“L), each with 6 matches.

For each match:

  1. โ‘ Enter the score โ€” type the predicted goals for each team (e.g., Brazil 2 โ€“ 1 Morocco)
  2. โ‘กSet your confidence โ€” rate 1โ€“5 stars how sure you are. Higher confidence = more points if correct, but more risk if wrong.
  3. โ‘ขClick away โ€” your prediction saves automatically when you click outside the input. No "Submit" button needed.

๐Ÿ’ก You don't have to predict every match

Fill in as many or as few as you want. Predict just one group, or just the matches you care about. Your predictions save as you go โ€” come back anytime to add more.
