Prediction Pool for Fan Clubs: 14 National Leagues Across Europe in the 2026/27 Season

The 2026/27 football season is here. Discover how easy it is to create a private prediction pool tailored to your fan club—whether you support a team in England, Czechia, or Spain.

Leagues and cups in trefa.app

A prediction pool for fan clubs on the 2026/27 national leagues is a free points-based game where fans predict the exact results of matches of their favorite team or the entire competition, and the application automatically calculates points for a shared leaderboard. Unlike traditional betting agencies, it is completely free, with no money wagering, and is played purely for fun and prestige within your community.

The 2026 World Cup is slowly fading away, and the attention of the entire football world is quickly shifting back to the club scene. Whether you support a team in Czechia, England, or Spain, the new 2026/27 season brings the perfect opportunity to spice up watching matches with friends. You don't have to predict the entire league full of teams you don't care about. On trefa.app, you can create a prediction pool tailored exactly to your fan club. How does it work and what competitions are available?

What is a prediction pool and why it's not betting

The word "prediction pool" might evoke a betting agency for some, but in our concept, it's a completely different format. A football leagues prediction pool is purely a game of points. Every member of your private group predicts the exact score of a match before kickoff. As soon as the match ends, the system automatically awards points to everyone based on how close they were to the actual score.

Whoever has the most points at the end of the season wins. No one wagers any money, no financial prizes are paid out, and there is no risk involved. It's simply a modern version of the paper spreadsheet you might remember from your school years or your favorite pub, just converted into a smart web app. Moreover, everything is fully private – your prediction pool is only visible to people you send an invitation link to or show a QR code.

When creating a prediction pool, you will see a clear tree structure (Football / Hockey). For national football leagues, you always see the competition logo and the flag of the respective country, so you can quickly navigate the menu.

Predict only your club's matches (Team-filtered pools)

This is the feature fan clubs love the most. Imagine you are part of the Czech fan club of Bayern Munich. You and the guys and girls want to make some predictions, but honestly – none of you enjoy coming up with an exact score for a match between Bochum and Heidenheim every weekend. You only want to follow Bayern.

Thanks to the team selection feature when creating a prediction pool (team-filtered pools), this is not a problem. As the founder (admin), you simply select only a specific team or teams when creating the league. The prediction pool will then show all members ONLY the matches in which the selected team plays (whether at home or away). No other matches from that competition will appear in the prediction pool or be predicted.

If you later find out you'd like to add matches of your main rival too, you as the admin can modify the team selection at any time in the settings and add another club. (The only restriction is logical: you cannot remove a team if someone in the pool has already bet on their match). If you don't select any specific club during creation, you predict the classic complete schedule of the whole league.

Do you follow a club across multiple competitions? Merge them into one prediction pool

Top clubs don't just play the domestic league, but also fight on the European stage. An Arsenal fan wants to predict the Premier League, but also the Champions League at the same time. In the past, this would mean having two separate prediction pools, clicking between them, and following two different leaderboards.

With the multi-league pools feature, you can merge multiple competitions of the same sport into one pool. You thus create one ultimate fan club prediction pool where Bundesliga and Champions League matches unify into one chronological list and points are tallied into one main leaderboard. You select the leagues right at creation and as an admin, you can add or remove them at any time (a competition with already predicted matches cannot be removed).

Plus, there's a neat trick: the "follow club across leagues" toggle. When you turn it on for a specific team, this team will automatically appear in ALL leagues in your pool, even in the one the admin adds later. A fan of Sparta or Slavia thus doesn't have to manually search for their club separately in the Chance Liga and separately in the European cups. And because clubs from all over Europe mix in transnational competitions, the app also displays the flag and country name of the teams in the Champions League for better orientation.

Your club's colors and custom scoring rules

To make the atmosphere in your fan club group absolutely perfect, trefa.app offers visual customization options. As an administrator, you can set a color palette for the entire prediction pool based on real club colors. Are you a Borussia Dortmund fan club? Simply choose the palette named "Yellow & Black" in the settings. Do you support the Prague "S" teams? Choose the corresponding maroon or red-and-white combination.

This feature, known as club theming, changes the app's visuals for all members of your specific prediction pool. It's important to mention that the palettes are not named directly after football clubs – this is not official club branding, but visual color inspiration. Changing colors has a purely aesthetic function, improves the user experience, and has absolutely no impact on the match schedule, scoring, or collected data.

Speaking of scoring, one of the biggest advantages of the platform is fully custom scoring rules. Every prediction pool founder sets the point system themselves. There is no universal dictate; no two prediction pools on trefa.app have to have the same rules. You decide yourself how many points a fan gets for an absolutely exact score (e.g., they predict 2:1 and the match actually ends that way), how many points you award for guessing the correct winner with a different score, or how you reward an exactly guessed draw. Someone prefers a simple system of 3 points for an exact result and 1 point for the winner, while another group might invent more complex math. If you're looking for inspiration on how to set up scoring best, check out our article on scoring rules for a corporate prediction pool, whose principles work exactly the same for fan clubs.

Who is the fan club prediction pool for

You might be wondering if this format is right for your group. The answer is simple: if you talk about football, then yes. A fan club prediction pool is hugely flexible and finds use in many different communities.

Official fan clubs and associations For official branches of fan clubs of both foreign and domestic teams, it's a great tool to keep members active even between individual matches. Instead of the communication on the forum or in the group dying down after the weekend, the prediction pool maintains the excitement throughout the season. The ongoing leaderboard naturally generates new topics for discussion and banter.

Pubs and sports bars Do you regularly watch matches in your favorite pub? Pub owners and regulars alike can create their own league. Before kickoff, everyone taps their prediction into their phone, and right after the final whistle, it's clear who won the imaginary title of football expert that evening. It's an ideal addition to watching football together on a big screen.

Social media communities Do you manage a large Facebook group, Discord server, or X account dedicated to a specific club? Engaging followers in a shared prediction pool is one of the best ways to increase interaction. Joining the prediction pool only requires clicking an invitation link or scanning a QR code.

A group of friends You don't have to be an official organization with hundreds of members. A prediction pool for national leagues works perfectly even for a group of five friends from school or work who support the same team and want to spice up the 2026/27 football season by competing against each other to see who understands football the most.
