Example match

How a live FA Cup match plays out

A pre-match predictor ends at kick-off. Here the match is where it starts: every goal settles a pick and opens the next one.

  1. Before kick-off

    Call the score

    You go 2-1 to the home side. Your correct score locks the moment the match kicks off.

  2. 23'

    Pick the next scorer

    You back the home striker to score next. After a short fair-play delay, the pick is locked in.

  3. 31' GOAL

    Points land instantly

    He scores. Your points hit the leaderboard straight away, not at full time.

  4. 31'

    A fresh pick opens

    The next goal is up for grabs: call the scorer again, or which team scores next.

  5. Full time

    Your score call pays too

    It finishes 2-1. The correct score you called before kick-off lands as well.

Predict the FA Cup, live

The FA Cup is the world's oldest football cup competition, running since 1871, and every round is open to clubs from across the English football pyramid. Premier League giants can be drawn against lower-league part-timers, and the magic of the cup means upsets happen every single season. No scoreline, no goalscorer is truly predictable - which makes FA Cup football some of the most exciting to predict live on CalledItMate.

The FA Cup's history is woven through English football culture like no other competition. Shock results - Wrexham beating Arsenal, AFC Wimbledon defeating MK Dons - are not just possible but expected. The third round in January, when Premier League clubs enter, marks one of the most-anticipated weekends in the English football calendar, with 32 matches played across three days.

FAQ

FA Cup prediction questions

How do I predict FA Cup matches on CalledItMate?

Open any enabled FA Cup fixture on CalledItMate, set your score prediction and goalscorer call, and earn points as the game plays out. Cup football is notoriously unpredictable - Premier League clubs drop points against lower-league opposition regularly, and the magic of the cup means no result is a foregone conclusion. The longer the odds on your call, the better it feels when it comes in.

When do FA Cup matches kick off?

FA Cup rounds take place throughout the season from August through to the final at Wembley in May, with the third round in January being the most-anticipated weekend as Premier League clubs enter the competition. Matches are spread across Saturday, Sunday and midweek slots, often with multiple fixtures on the same day during the early rounds.
