Kickoff Brief is for people entering World Cup fantasy teams, score predictors and bracket games who want clear decisions without pretending football is more certain than it is.
No certainty theatre.
I’m Sean, 55, and I’ve been playing fantasy football for around 20 years.
I built Kickoff Brief because I know how annoying it is to miss a deadline, forget a captain change, or only spot important team news after the game has locked.
My son helped me get started with the site, but the idea is simple: make World Cup fantasy and predictor games easier to keep on top of, especially for normal people who do not want to spend hours chasing injury rumours and lineup clues.
No jargon, no fuss. Just the useful stuff before you need to make a decision.
Kickoff Brief does the digging so you do not have to: team news, injuries, likely lineups, fantasy angles, predictor changes and deadline reminders.
It will not pretend football is certain. It will tell you what changed, why it matters, and what looks sensible.
Kickoff Brief turns World Cup team news, injuries, lineups and fixture context into clear fantasy football advice and predictor calls before your game locks. We send emails with squad advice, captain picks, score predictions and deadline reminders.
We cover FIFA World Cup Fantasy, The Sun Dream Team and Premier League Fantasy. We provide game-specific advice tailored to each format's rules, scoring and deadlines.
We provide score predictions for Superbru Predictor and Predict Addict. Our predictions are tailored to each app's scoring rules so you know which risks are worth taking.
We check every team playing before each round — injuries, illness, rotation risk, press conferences and late squad news. Every news item is labelled as confirmed, unverified or debunked so you know what to trust.
Choose which emails you want — fantasy, predictor or both. Pick your reminder timing. You will get team news, advice and deadline nudges before each round. You can change your preferences or unsubscribe at any time.
Yes. Kickoff Brief is free during the World Cup. We are building the product and want feedback from real players before thinking about any paid plans.
