Our Free World Cup Match Predictor, presented in partnership with BOYLE Sports, is back for Matchday 3, giving fans another chance to win a cash prize of £1,000. This is the final opportunity to enter your predictions for the concluding round of group stage fixtures, with the deadline set for 7 PM this evening.

Simply submit your picks for each country’s last group match – choosing between a win, draw or loss – before the cutoff time. Every participant receives a free £5 bet just for playing, and those who top the Matchday 3 leaderboard will share the £1,000 prize pool, which is refreshed every round.

For the 2026 World Cup, BOYLE Sports is running this free-to-play predictor exclusively for FourFourTwo.com readers across every stage of the tournament – from the three group matches to the Round of 32, Round of 16, quarter-finals, semi-finals, and the final. The schedule for each round is as follows:

Matchday 1: Predict each nation’s first game (win, lose or draw) – NOW CLOSED
Matchday 2: Predict each nation’s second game (win, lose or draw) – NOW CLOSED
Matchday 3: Predict each nation’s third game (win, lose or draw) – CLOSES TONIGHT AT 7 PM!
Matchday 4: Predict results of the final eight Round of 32 matches, including the winner and total goals in 90 minutes plus injury time (excluding extra time or penalties).
Matchday 5: Predict the outcomes of the four Round of 16 matches, including the winner and total goals in 90 minutes plus injury time (excluding extra time or penalties).
Matchday 6: Predict the winners and correct scorelines for the three quarter-final matches in 90 minutes plus injury time (excluding extra time or penalties).
Matchday 7: Predict the correct scores for both semi-finals in 90 minutes plus injury time (excluding extra time or penalties). The tie-breaker will be the minute of the first goal in the first semi-final.
Matchday 8: Predict the correct scores for the third-place playoff and the World Cup final in 90 minutes plus injury time (excluding extra time or penalties). The tie-breaker will be the minute of the first goal in the final.

Each time you make a prediction, you’ll receive a £5/€5 free bet within 24 hours, allowing you to earn up to £40/€40 in free bets throughout the tournament – even if none of your predictions are correct. The most accurate predictors each round will share a £1,000/€1,000 jackpot, which resets after every matchday.
