Play our Euros Bracket Challenge game ahead of this summer’s tournament and compete for iPhone 15 Pro Max
PLAY Dream Team's Euros Bracket Challenge ahead of this summer's mouthwatering international tournament and you could win an iPhone 15 Pro Max.
Much like our , our new game is also free to play via Dream Team's app or website.
It couldn't be easier to play, simply predict the standings for the group stages and knockout fixtures from the round of 16 to the all-important final of Euro 2024.
You'll earn points for accurate predictions and if you rack up more than any other user, you'll land the iPhone 15 Pro Max* (worth £1,199).
You can alter your predictions as many times as you wish from now until the tournament gets underway at 8pm on Friday 14th June so there's no harm submitting an early first draft and tinkering later.
Competing for the top prize is only half the fun, of course.
We encourage you to compete in Mini Leagues against your mates, colleagues, family members, or whoever - flexing your football knowledge and claiming bragging rights makes for a satisfying prize in itself.
When playing the game, you will first be invited to forecast the group standings.
For example, Group A contains Germany, Switzerland, Hungary and Scotland so you would have to put these four teams in the order you think they will finish:
- 1st Germany
- 2nd Scotland
- 3rd Hungary
- 4th Switzerland
You earn five points for each correct prediction and an additional three points if you get the entire group spot on.
Using our above example, if Germany finish top of Group A and Switzerland finish bottom but Hungary edge out Scotland to claim second then this set of predictions would earn ten points (five each for Germany and Switzerland being correct).
However, if the Tartan Army finish as runners-up behind Germany ahead of Hungary, this set of predictions would be worth a whopping 23 points (five for each of the four correct predictions plus three more for a perfect group).
Here's a reminder of the group line-ups.
GROUP A
- Germany
- Switzerland
- Scotland
- Hungary
GROUP B
- Spain
- Croatia
- Italy
- Albania
GROUP C
- England
- Slovenia
- Denmark
- Serbia
GROUP D
- Netherlands
- France
- Austria
- Poland
GROUP E
- Belgium
- Slovakia
- Romania
- Ukraine
GROUP F
- Portugal
- Turkey
- Czechia
- Georgia
Group B looks particularly difficult to predict with Italy, Spain and Croatia all vying for top spot while Group F has an enticingly chaotic feel to it.
Once you've submitted your group stage predictions, you'll be invited to select the best four of the six third-place finishers as those teams will also make it to the round of 16 alongside the six group winners and six runners-up in Euro 2024.
The four best third-place finishers are determined primarily by points, then by goal difference, goals scored, most wins, disciplinary record and finally, if required, European qualifiers overall ranking.
After that, it's time to predict the knockout stages from the round of 16 all the the way to the final.
For example, if you back England to finish top of Group C and Turkey to finish third in Group F as one of the four best third-place finishers, then you're looking at England vs Turkey in the round of 16.
Knockout Round scoring:
- Correct round of 16 winner = 2 points
- Correct quarter-final winner = 4 points
- Correct semi-final winner = 8 points
- Correct tournament winner = 16 points
The essence of the game is simple: the closer you get to accurately predicting how the Euros will play out, the more points you'll earn.
You'll automatically appear on our overall leaderboard which will ultimately determine the winner of the iPhone 15 Pro Max but don't forget to set up a Mini League just for you and your mates.
