3
Predict every leg
Call the score of each leg before kickoff and pick who goes through in each tie. Points land while the match is played, and the table updates in real time.
Scoring built for knockouts
Points for the right result, more for the exact score, and rarity bonuses for the bold call nobody else made. As admin you can tune every value.
Bigger rounds, bigger points
Make every round count more than the one before. Boost the play-offs, round of 16, quarter-finals, semi-finals and final anywhere from ×1.5 to ×5.
Free match previews in the Lab
Every knockout match gets its own page a week before kickoff: win chances, recent form in every competition, head-to-head and lineups. Live stats follow while the match is on, then a full recap after the final whistle.
The Global League plays on
The Global League's Champions League competition runs all the way to the final, with knockout matches worth more points than league-phase ones. Finish first and win an official jersey of the club of your choice. Play it from the same account as your knockout group, and prediction sync can send one pick to both.
Champions League knockout prediction questions
Can we play only the Champions League knockouts?
Yes. Select only the knockout rounds in the setup wizard and your group's table counts from the play-offs on. The league phase stays out of it.
How does picking who goes through work over two legs?
You make one pick per tie and can change it until the first leg kicks off. It is scored after the second leg on the aggregate, with extra time and penalties counted, on top of your points for each leg's score.
When can we start predicting the knockouts?
You can set up your group today. The league phase ends on January 27, 2027, and the draws then decide the pairings. Each knockout match opens for picks as soon as its clubs are known and stays open until its own kickoff.
Can I still join the Global League for the knockouts?
Yes. Anyone can join the Global League at any time and predict every match that has not kicked off yet. Points only come from the matches you predict, so for a fresh start at the knockouts, run your own group alongside it.
Is it free, and does everyone need the app?
Creating a group, predicting every match and following the live table cost nothing, and there are no entry fees. PrediBall also works in any browser at prediball.app, so nobody has to download anything.
