Simple and fun score prediction game for association football
This was the home of a long-running score prediction competition, originally based on Twitter. Following the decline of that platform, exploration is underway to resurrect the competition somewhere else.
Submitting score predictions
Once upon a time, score predictions could be submitted either by tweeting a prediction (on matchdays) with the appropriate hashtag or by entering predictions on this website. Predictions submitted via Twitter would be acknowledged by an automatic tweet from the @hashfooteryBot account mentioning your Twitter username. After Twitter was acquired and became X, the API features required to operate the competition were no longer available for free.
How the scoring works
- If you correctly predict the score in a match, you get 3 points
- If your score prediction was incorrect, but you got the outcome correct (i.e. drawn game, winning team), you get 1 point
