bet365 6 Scores Challenge — Predict Six Correct Scores & Win a Share of £250,000

The 6 Scores Challenge is a free-to-play correct-score prediction game run by bet365 throughout the football season. Each week, registered customers are invited to predict the exact correct score in six selected football fixtures — this weekend across Premier League and Championship matches.

Get all six right and you could win a share of the £250,000 jackpot. If you’re the only player to predict all six scores correctly, the entire pot is yours. Smaller consolation prizes are awarded for two, three, four and five correct scores. There is no cost to enter — no stake, no deposit, no fee.

Yes — the 6 Scores Challenge is completely free to enter. You do not need to deposit, place a bet or pay any kind of entry fee. The only requirement is that you have a registered and verified bet365 account.

This makes the challenge unusual in the world of sports promotions: the potential prize pool is £250,000, and the cost of participation is zero. You have nothing to lose and a life-changing jackpot to gain.

The challenge is open to all registered and verified bet365 customers. You must have a live account to access the game — it will only be visible once you are logged in. New customers can register directly at bet365 to get started.

bet365 reserves the right to restrict or remove access to the challenge for any individual customer at its discretion. Not all games are guaranteed to be available and selected eligible games may only appear to logged-in, verified customers.

Saturday 29 August 2026:

Bournemouth v Everton — 15:00 UK
Coventry v Hull — 15:00 UK
Tottenham v Newcastle — 17:30 UK

Sunday 30 August 2026:

Chelsea v Brighton — 14:00 UK
Leeds v Brentford — 14:00 UK
Man United v Ipswich — 16:30 UK

You must enter predictions for all six matches. Partial entries do not qualify for prizes. Remember each prediction locks individually once that fixture kicks off.

The full prize structure for this weekend is:

2 correct scores — £2 Bet Credit
3 correct scores — £5 Bet Credit
4 correct scores — a share of £10,000
5 correct scores — a share of £20,000
6 correct scores — a share of up to £250,000

Cash prizes for four, five and six correct scores are shared equally among all players achieving that tier. If you are the only person to reach a tier, you receive the entire amount. If only one player gets six right, they win the full £250,000.

If nobody correctly predicts all six scores, the £250,000 jackpot is not awarded for that week. However, all other prize tiers — consolation Bet Credits for two and three correct scores, and the shares of £10,000 and £20,000 for four and five correct scores — are still paid out to players who achieve those thresholds.

The challenge runs weekly throughout the football season, so there is always a fresh opportunity to enter the following weekend’s edition.

Prizes for two or three correct scores are awarded as Bet Credits, not withdrawable cash. Bet Credits can be used as stakes on eligible bet365 markets, but the stake itself is not returned with any winnings. Only the profit portion of a winning Bet Credits bet is added to your withdrawable balance.

For example: a £5 Bet Credits stake at odds of 2/1 (3.00) would return £10 net — the £10 winnings are credited, but the £5 Bet Credits stake is not returned. Bet Credits expire 7 days after they are credited to your balance. They cannot be used on Tote, Colossus, Lotto, Fantasy Sports, Teasers, Super Boosts or Winnings Boosts.

Yes — the cash prize pots of £10,000 (four correct) and £20,000 (five correct) are paid out regardless of how many players achieve those thresholds. The pots are simply split equally between all qualifying players at each tier. If you are the only person to predict four scores correctly, you take the entire £10,000.

This means the actual amount each winner receives varies depending on how many players also hit the same number of correct scores. On a popular weekend with high participation, shares could be modest at the four and five tiers; on a week with difficult predictions, fewer players may qualify and the individual share value rises.

Yes — you can amend any prediction right up until that fixture kicks off. If a key player is ruled out with injury on the morning of the match, or team news changes your view on how a game will play out, log back in to your bet365 account and update the relevant prediction before the whistle blows.

Each fixture locks independently once it starts. This means if you enter all six predictions on Saturday morning, you can still update your Sunday predictions after the Saturday games have begun. The ability to amend is one of the most underused features of the challenge — use it.

There is no guaranteed formula — if there were, everyone would use it and the jackpot would always be shared. But a few principles improve your chances over pure randomness:

Favour home wins in big mismatches. When a Premier League club with strong home form faces a newly promoted or weaker away side, a 2-0 or 2-1 home win is the statistically most common outcome. It is boring but it is right more often than the alternatives.

Go with 1-1 in tight Championship games. The Championship is exceptionally even at the start of the season. Draws are more common than in the Premier League, and 1-1 is consistently the most frequent Championship scoreline when two evenly matched sides meet away from the opening weekend.

Watch for late team news. The biggest mistake in correct-score prediction is submitting selections on Thursday and not checking Saturday morning. A key striker ruled out changes the expected goals landscape significantly. Use the amend feature and check team news right up until kick-off.

Don’t overthink it. Correct-score prediction is genuinely difficult. Getting four or five right in a single weekend is a major achievement — those prizes are valuable and far more likely than the full six. Going in with reasonable, considered predictions and adjusting for late news is the most rational approach.

Championship matches at the start of the season have a distinctive pattern: neither side has built consistency yet, defensive shape is still being established, and visiting teams tend to set up to avoid defeat rather than attack. Coventry at home are capable of winning but not always by wide margins, while Hull’s away record tends to reflect a team content to keep things tight and take a point.

The 1-1 prediction is also a strategic choice in the context of the 6 Scores Challenge: draws are harder to predict than home wins, so fewer entrants will select them. If a draw lands correctly, it is more likely to move you into a tier where fewer people have achieved the same number of correct scores — which increases the share of any cash prize you receive.

The 2-1 home win is statistically the most common Premier League scoreline — historically accounting for around 15-17% of all Premier League results in any given season. In three fixtures where the home side carries genuine quality but the away team has enough attacking ability to get on the scoresheet, it is the most rational prediction available.

Bournemouth, Tottenham and Chelsea are all hosting teams they should beat at home while facing opponents capable of scoring — Everton on the counter, Newcastle through set pieces, Brighton through their pressing game. The 2-1 scoreline covers all three scenarios without overstating the margin of victory.

That said, if you have a strong view that one of those games will end differently — 3-1, 1-0 or a draw — it is always worth making your own call. Our suggestions are a starting point, not gospel.
