The short version
What is a LaLiga prediction league?
A LaLiga prediction league — in Spain, a porra; elsewhere a predictor game or prediction pool — is a season-long game where every member predicts the score of each match before kickoff and earns points for how close they get. Whoever accumulates the most points across the season wins.
The version BeTeam runs is not betting: no money is staked, there are no odds and there is no payout. That is the difference between this and the traditional cash porra or a quiniela — the prize here is the leaderboard among people you actually know.
BeTeam is the free app that runs it for you. Instead of a spreadsheet somebody has to maintain, or a group chat where predictions get buried under memes, everything lives in one place: the fixtures, the deadlines, the scoring, and the table.
How it works
Your league is live in three steps
No spreadsheet to build, no rules to write from scratch, nothing to score by hand.
Create the league
Pick the LaLiga 2026/27 season. All 380 fixtures load in with their kickoff times, and you choose the scoring rules.
Send one link
Drop the invite link in WhatsApp or your work chat. Everyone joins in seconds — and since predictions lock at kickoff, get the group in before the whistle.
Proof it holds up
What happened when the World Cup ran on BeTeam
Five weeks, one tournament, and a lot of groups exactly like yours. Every number below is a raw count from our production database, not a marketing estimate.
Figures cover 1 June – 9 July 2026. A World Cup is a spike, not a normal month — a club season is steadier and longer, which is rather the point of a 380-match league. Full methodology and per-day numbers are in the World Cup 2026 case study.
Scoring
Points that everyone agrees are fair
BeTeam's default system rewards precision without letting one lucky guess decide the season. The organizer can change the weights before the league starts.
Then the multipliers the organizer switches on
This is what keeps a 38-jornada season open to the end: the organizer picks which multipliers to use, and they compound — El Clásico inside a doubled jornada is worth ×4.
The two Clásico weekends are the ones that decide most leagues — which is exactly why a traditional porra always charged double for them, and why BeTeam does it with points instead of cash. Predictions lock the second the match kicks off, so nobody can quietly edit a pick at half-time. Want to tune it? Read the full scoring rulebook or design your own points system with the free scoring calculator.
We analysed 194,812 real predictions from BeTeam leagues. Fans get the outcome right 60% of the time, but the exact scoreline only 10.4% — which is exactly why a 3-point exact score keeps a league competitive to the final jornada. See the full research →

Built for a group of friends, not a pool of strangers
The whole season, scored for you
All 380 fixtures import automatically, results land minutes after full time, and the table is always right. Zero admin for the organizer.
Private and friends-first
A closed league with only the people you invite — your friends, your office, your family chat. Not a leaderboard of 400,000 strangers.
One-link invites
Share a single link in WhatsApp and everyone is in within seconds. No codes to type out, no members to chase down.
No real money — ever
No deposits, no withdrawals, no cash prizes, no odds. Nobody has to collect from the group, and nobody has to chase the person who never pays.
More than one competition
Add the Champions League, the Copa del Rey or the Premier League to the same group — 75+ competitions.
Bragging rights that stick
Every prediction is recorded, so end-of-season claims about "I called that Clásico" can finally be checked.
Compare
Cash porra, spreadsheet, or BeTeam?
Three quite different ways to predict the same matches. Only one of them is purely a game between friends.
| BeTeam | Traditional cash porra | Spreadsheet / group chat | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Money | None — points only | Everyone pays in; someone holds the pot | None |
| Fixtures | All 380, automatic | Whatever the organizer writes down | Typed in by hand |
| Scoring | Instant, automatic, with multipliers | Counted by hand on Monday | Someone's Sunday evening |
| Late edits | Locked at kickoff | Depends who you trust | Anyone can overwrite a cell |
| Fine for the office | Yes — nothing at stake | Often not; it involves cash | Until someone breaks the file |
| On your phone | Native iOS & Android app | A sheet of paper | Pinch-and-zoom misery |

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What is the best free app for a LaLiga prediction league with friends?
BeTeam is a free iOS and Android app built specifically for private prediction leagues. Create a league, pick the LaLiga 2026/27 season, and invite friends with one link. Everyone predicts each score before kickoff, and BeTeam scores it automatically on a live leaderboard — a modern, automated version of the classic porra, with no real money involved.
When does the 2026-27 LaLiga season start?
Sunday 16 August 2026 — the earliest kickoff of Europe's top five leagues, five days before the Premier League — running to May 2027, with 380 matches across 38 jornadas. Create your league before the first jornada so your group can predict from matchday 1.
How does scoring work in a LaLiga prediction league?
BeTeam's default is 3 points for the exact scoreline, 1 point for the correct outcome with the wrong score, and 0 for a miss. The organizer can change the weights, add bonus questions such as the Pichichi, and switch on multipliers — El Clásico flagged as a Super Game is worth double. Predictions lock at kickoff, and points are calculated automatically from real results.
Is a LaLiga prediction league gambling?
No. There is no money staked, no odds, and no payouts — members compete for points and the leaderboard only. It is a social game, not a sportsbook and not a real-money quiniela, which is why offices, schools and family groups use it.
Can I make El Clásico worth more points?
Yes. The organizer can flag any fixture as a Super Game worth double, so Real Madrid v Barcelona — or a Derbi Madrileño, or the Seville derby — swings the table far more than an ordinary jornada. Multipliers compound, so a Super Game inside a doubled jornada is worth four times a normal match.
How many people can join one prediction league?
There is no practical limit. BeTeam leagues run from a three-person family group up to office pools with hundreds of members, and the leaderboard works the same at any size. Everyone joins through the same invite link.
Can I join late or miss a jornada?
Yes. You can join at any point in the season and start predicting from the next fixture. Missed matches simply score zero, so late joiners start behind but can still climb. Organizers often start a fresh mini-league in January for exactly this reason.
What happens if a match is postponed or rescheduled?
The fixture list updates automatically. If a match moves, its deadline moves with it and predictions lock at the new kickoff time. Nothing has to be re-entered and no points are lost.
Can I run other competitions in the same group?
Yes. The same group can also run the Champions League, the Copa del Rey, the Premier League, or any of the 75+ competitions BeTeam covers across football, basketball, American football, ice hockey, baseball and tennis — each with its own leaderboard.
Jornada 1 is 16 August. Get your league in before it.
