Scoring Rules

Points follow the official FIFA Bracket Challenge scoring system. Every correct prediction earns points — accuracy is rewarded at every stage, with the biggest prizes saved for the Final.

Group Stage

For each of the 12 groups, rank all four teams from 1st to 4th. You earn points for every team you place in the correct final position.
