Entry form is due no later than 12:00 PDT Thursday, June 11
For each of the twelve groups A-L, select the finishing order. Also, choose eight teams you have chosen to finish third in their group who you believe will advance to the Round of 32 as wild card qualifiers.
Teams are shown with their FIFA Ranking as at April 1 in parentheses.
Points will be awarded based on how close the predicted order is to the actual result. Predicting the four wild card qualifiers will earn points for each wild card team identified correctly. Bonus points are also awarded for having the most teams correctly predicted to reach the knockout rounds, as well as having the greatest number of groups exactly correct. (Full description of points can be found below the form, full set of rules can be found on the Rules page.)
Please note the following when entering your wild card selections below:
- You may only select wild card teams that you’ve predicted to finish third in their group.
- Each wild card team must be different. You may not select the same team twice.
- Ranking of wild card teams does not matter.
