How to play Rank This or That

Rank This or That is Footy Rankle's quick-fire higher-or-lower game. Every day brings one stat and one question, and two names side by side — sometimes footballers, sometimes clubs. Pick the one with the bigger number. Get it right and the chain continues; get it wrong and today's run is over.

There are 16 names in each daily chain, which means 15 decisions. After each pick both real-world numbers are revealed, so you learn as you go and can use what you have just seen in the next round. A new chain arrives every day at midnight London time, and each visitor gets one run per day.

How to play

  1. 1Read today's question — one stat, such as Premier League goals or stadium capacity.
  2. 2Tap the player or club you think has the bigger number.
  3. 3Both numbers are revealed; a correct pick scores 1 point.
  4. 4The newer name stays and a fresh one slides in for the next round.
  5. 5Keep going until you miss or reach 15 out of 15.

Are the pairs the same for everyone?

Yes. Each day has one fixed chain of 16 names, so every player faces the same 15 comparisons in the same order. Your answers never change which name comes next.

Which name stays after each round?

The newest name of the pair always stays and the next name in the chain comes in. Which side the newcomer lands on is random, so the layout never hints at the answer.

Can I keep going after a wrong pick?

No. One wrong pick ends the run and your score is the number of correct picks before it. Fifteen in a row is a perfect day.
