YOUR PREDICTIONS MUST BE SAVED

DO NOT FORGET TO SAVE YOUR PREDICTIONS
The scoring
You get points for predicting the correct winner of the match or prediction of a draw. We call this the correct result.
In case you also predict the exact amount of goals scored, you get extra points. We call this the correct score.
If you got the goals correct you get the extra goal bonus, even if you didn’t get the match result correct (e.g. match ends in 1-1 and you predicted 0-1 you will still get [fp-goalpoints] points).
The last scoring options is the goal difference bonus: if you predict the correct winner, not the exact score, but you predicted the correct difference in goals, you get the goal difference bonus (e.g. you predicted 3-1 or 4-2 and result is 2-0).
| points | |
|---|---|
| correct result | [fp-totopoints] |
| correct score | [fp-fullpoints] |
| goal bonus | [fp-goalpoints] |
| goal difference bonus | [fp-diffpoints] |

Same ranking?

- amount of correct scores;
- amount of correct results;
