A new predictor is here for the 2026/27 Premier League season, and it’s playing a different game to the rest.
Meet PL Predictor – brought to you in association with Squawka – a scoreline prediction game that ditches the usual six-fixture format for something far more ambitious: every match, every game week.
Premier League football is back after the international break, and Gameweek 6 locks at 12:30 BST on Saturday 10 October. If you’ve been meaning to sort out a mini league with your mates, this is the week to do it. The top mini league takes £100 this weekend, and there are still six weeks left to qualify for the season-long race.
Forget six scores – predict the lot
Most Premier League predictor games have you picking six scorelines a week. PL Predictor asks for all 10 fixtures (or more, whenever there’s an extra game squeezed into the week). Predictions go in ahead of each game week, much like picking a fantasy football team, giving you a fresh shot at getting it right – or spectacularly wrong – every single week of the season.

Rivals in your league, teammates against the rest
The real twist is what happens once your scores are in. PL Predictor isn’t just player versus player – it’s mini league versus mini league.
Set up a mini league with your mates (you’ll need at least five to get going), and your group then competes against every other mini league in the game. That’s what makes PL Predictor different: it’s not just about outscoring your mate at the pub, it’s about your whole group taking on everyone else’s.
Two ways to score
There are two scoring mechanisms running side by side:
- Individual – your score against your mates in the mini league (bragging rights), and against everyone else on the global leaderboard, with monthly and end-of-season prizes up for grabs.
- Mini league – your group’s collective score against every other mini league in the game.
Mini league scoring works like this: each game week, your mini league takes its top five individual scores and averages them. In a mini league of exactly five, everyone’s score counts. In a mini league of ten, only the best five that week count – so there’s room for someone to have an off week without sinking the group. Season standings are based on average score per game week, not cumulative totals.
Why joining late won’t hurt you
Missed the first couple of game weeks? Doesn’t matter. Your score is always your total points divided by the number of game weeks you’ve actually played – not the number that have gone by. Score 15 points in your first week and 17 in your second, for example, and your season score is shown as 16 (32 ÷ 2), with no zeros from before you signed up dragging you down.
One thing to watch: that forgiveness only applies before you’ve joined. Miss a game week after signing up and you’ll score zero for it, which counts against your individual score and can knock your mini league’s average if there are only five of you in the group. Qualification closes on 21 November 2026, to stop anyone joining in the closing weeks and claiming the top prizes.
What prizes can you win on PL Predictor?
Every week of the season, the top mini league takes £100. Over the full season, the top mini league wins £1,000.
Solo players are also in the running. The top individual player each month is named Manager of the Month and wins £50. The best solo player over the whole season takes £500.
| Prize | Who wins it | Amount |
|---|---|---|
| Weekly | Top mini league that gameweek | £100 |
| Manager of the Month | Top solo player that month | £50 |
| Season – mini league | Top mini league at the end of the season | £1,000 |
| Season – solo | Top solo player at the end of the season | £500 |
There is also a refer-a-mate draw, with two England home tickets at Wembley up for grabs.
Who has won so far?
£500 has already been paid out to real players this season, and more than £4,300 is still up for grabs. Four £100 weekly mini league prizes have gone out so far. MHI old boys won twice, in Gameweeks 2 and 5, and Marbs (Gameweek 3) and Lodges (Gameweek 4) took one each. Ben H. was August’s Manager of the Month, and Rich L. won September’s award.
| Prize | Winner | Amount |
|---|---|---|
| Gameweek 2 | MHI old boys | £100 |
| Gameweek 3 | Marbs | £100 |
| Gameweek 4 | Lodges | £100 |
| Gameweek 5 | MHI old boys | £100 |
| Manager of the Month – August | Ben H. | £50 |
| Manager of the Month – September | Rich L. | £50 |
Every prize paid is listed on the PL Predictor winners page.
Is it too late to join?
No. Mini leagues are ranked on their average weekly score, not on total points. That means a group that starts now is on level terms with one that has been playing since Gameweek 1. Qualification for the mini league prizes stays open until 21 November. You need at least five members to qualify.
No mates? No problem!
Don’t have five friends daft enough to join you? You don’t need them. Play solo and you’re still in the running for the monthly and season prizes on the global leaderboard.
