The Daily Mail has launched an exciting and completely free football prediction game that offers participants the opportunity to win substantial cash prizes simply by forecasting Premier League match results. This engaging competition, known as the Predictor, tasks players with predicting the outcomes of seven selected Premier League fixtures each weekend.
How the Predictor Game Works
The mechanics of the game are straightforward and accessible to all football enthusiasts. Participants must forecast the winner of each of the seven matches or predict a draw. Additionally, for the designated tiebreaker game, players must predict the minute in which the first goal will be scored. For every correct match outcome prediction, players earn one point.
Weekly and Seasonal Prizes
The player who accumulates the highest number of points each week claims the top prize of £1,000. Furthermore, an impressive seasonal prize of £5,000 is awarded to the participant who finishes first in the overall standings across the entire Premier League season. Predictions can be modified freely until one minute before the kick-off of the first match in the weekly selection.
League Features and Global Leaderboard
Beyond individual competition, the Predictor game incorporates social and competitive league features. Players have the option to create or join both public and private leagues, enabling direct competition with friends, family, or colleagues. A global public leaderboard also ranks all participants, offering additional bragging rights and the weekly £1,000 prize for the top performer.
Currently, expert James Sharpe leads the internal experts' table with a total of 88 points, setting a benchmark for other players to challenge. The game is designed to settle debates over football knowledge definitively.
Accessibility and Participation
The Predictor game is designed for convenience, featuring an auto-fill option for those who prefer a quicker entry method. It is accessible via the Daily Mail website or through a dedicated mobile application, allowing play on any preferred device. The next prediction round commences on Saturday, April 11, with weekly deadlines set for 12:30 PM every Saturday.
To participate, individuals must be aged 18 or over and reside outside Northern Ireland, as the game is excluded there. All standard terms and conditions apply to the competition. Prospective players are encouraged to visit the official Daily Mail Predictor page to begin their journey towards potentially winning thousands of pounds.
