How to Play:

• Predict the 6 challenges for FREE Pick 2 match winners, 2 correct scores, and the scorecast for the featured game (correct score plus first goalscorer). Make your picks and lock them in before the deadline to play for free.
• Don’t forget the Tie Breaker Predict the minute of the fastest goal scored in the round. If more than one player gets all 6 challenges correct, the closest tie breaker wins.
• Win the Jackpot Predict all 6 challenges correctly to win the £25,000 jackpot. If multiple players get all 6 correct and are equally close on the tie breaker, the jackpot is split equally between them. Predictions must be in before the round deadline shown at the top of the Play screen — once the first match kicks off, picks are locked.

Every round we pick 10 fixtures and split them into three groups (see below). You pick 2 winners from the Winners pool, predict the correct score in both Scores fixtures, and predict the correct score AND first goalscorer in the Featured Match.

That’s 6 picks. Then set your Tie Breaker — the minute you think the fastest goal of the round will be scored.

You get 1 point per correct pick, up to a maximum of 6 per round. The Featured Match correct score and first goalscorer are scored independently, so the Featured pick is worth up to 2 points on its own (1 for the score, 1 for the scorer).

The Tie Breaker your prediction of the minute the fastest goal of the round will be scored, anywhere across the 10 fixtures. Pick any minute from 1 to 90. Goals scored in first-half stoppage time count as minute 45, and goals scored in second-half stoppage time count as minute 90. Extra time and penalty shoot-outs don’t count.

Predict 6 first round fixtures (Deadline – Mon 15th Jun, 5pm):

Pick two winners from:

• Spain v Cape Verde
• Belgium v Egypt
• Saudi Arabia v Uruguay
• Iran v New Zealand
• France v Senegal
• Iraq v Norway
