Predict Smarter: A Quick Guide to How Scoring Works

Predictions are free, points-only, and built for bragging rights. Here is the scheme.

The scoring

• Exact scoreline: 3 points.
• Correct result (you got the winner or the draw right, wrong score): 1 point.
• Wrong result: 0 points.

Scoring runs on the server after each match finishes — never on your device — so everyone is graded the same way at the same time.

Three habits that win mini-leagues

1. Don't chase exact scores in cagey games. A safe 1–0 call banks the result point far more often than a hopeful 3–1. 2. Predict every match in the window. Zeroes from missed games sink more leagues than bad calls do. 3. Set reminders. The matchday window opens about 48 hours before the first kickoff and each match locks at its own kickoff. Miss the lock and the pick is gone.
