Which sports will I have to make predictions for?
The featured sports can vary from one round to another, but fixture lists may include soccer, rugby, cricket, tennis, basketball, hockey, athletics, swimming, cycling and motorsport.
How does it work for individual sports?
Individual sports, and race events, require you to predict the podium position - 1 for first place, X for second place and 2 for third place.
Can I use a QuickPick?
Absolutely! The QuickPick feature allows you to randomly generate and play up to 256 boards simultaneously.
Can I play Matchplay 14 Omnisports in advance?
No. Each fixture list has different sports and different events, which are only confirmed a few days before each round, so it is not possible to pre-play future draws.
How much does it cost to play?
Entry is just R2 per board.
How do I win a prize?
You’ll win a prize by correctly predicting 11 or more match outcomes out of the 14. The total prize pool is split by percentage across these winning tiers.
What happens if nobody wins the top prize?
If no one correctly predicts all 14 outcomes, the top-tier prize money rolls over to Division 1 of the next draw, creating an even bigger jackpot!
What are the odds of winning?
If you make your selections completely at random, the odds of getting all 14 predictions correct are 1 in 47,782,969. However, because soccer involves strategy and skill, it isn't based on pure chance like a standard lottery draw.
What happens if a scheduled event is postponed or cancelled? ?
If a fixture does not take place, all bets on that match are automatically settled as correct. It doesn’t matter if you predicted a Home Win, Away Win, or Draw—it counts as a win for everyone.
