Flex your football brain with our daily quizzes
Retold by Oddsrama · 31 August 2026

Looking to sharpen your football knowledge while you're catching up on the latest odds and form? BBC Sport has rolled out a trio of daily quizzes designed to test how well you really know the game, and it's a perfect way to kill time between matches.
The format is straightforward but engaging. First up is the "Guess the Footballer" challenge, where you've got unlimited attempts to identify a mystery player—but here's the catch: each wrong guess unlocks a clue, and your score depends on how few hints you need to crack it. Then there's "Five in Five," a speed round where you need to nail five correct answers in just five minutes. Finally, the "Brainteaser" is where things get properly tricky: you get five lives to guess a fiendishly difficult football question before the answer's revealed. It's the kind of stuff that separates the casual fans from the ones who genuinely live and breathe the sport.
If you're the competitive type, these quizzes add another layer to your match-day experience. Getting sharp on player history, team facts, and obscure trivia can actually help when you're weighing up betting angles—understanding form, injury records, and historical matchups is part of solid tipster work. The quizzes are updated daily and curated by BBC Sport's quiz team, so there's always fresh material. You can dive into dedicated football quiz pages and set up notifications to never miss a new challenge, making it easy to stay locked in on your football IQ.
