World Cup 2026 · Fantasy

How to play.

Three steps. Each knockout round: pick three players, set your own lines and predict their fantasy points on those calls. Beat your lines and climb the board.

Step 01

Pick your 3 players

Every knockout round, draft one forward, one midfielder and one defender from the slate. That trio is your squad for the round.

Step 02

Set your line

For each pick, set your own call on their fantasy points — take an Over / Under on your line or In / Out on your Range. Profit is rewarded based on your prediction.
