Automatic Selection Round of 16
While predicting the matches, the round of 16 are automatically filled out based on the virtual ranking of the group that will be ranked by higher number of points, superior goal difference, higher of goals score and higher number of wins. This means that the six group winners, the six runners-up and the four best third-placed teams will be selected automatically for the round of 16.
The table below will be applied for the automatic selection for the round of 16 based on a predefined scheme. For example, if the four best third-placed teams come from groups A, B, C and D, the first row be applied and results in the following matches: 1B vs 3A, 2C vs 3D, 1E vs 3B, 1F vs 3C.
There's one important note to the automatic selection, if you predict all games equal (draw), and the goal difference and points are equal, the system doesn't know what to do. In case you should overrule and select the country as you wish.

Points to be earned based on the predicted countries in the knockout rounds
Next to the points for the score, you are able to collect points by predicting the countries that go through to the next round(s). So, you can earn points based on the correct position (CP), or the incorrect position (IP). For example, correct position is equal by predicting that France will be the winner of Group A. But, if another country comes first and France qualifies, but as runner-up, it will be selected as the incorrect position.
