If you wish to take a look at our predictions for the Sportstake 8 fixtures, make sure to check this page a day before the games, which are when we publish our predictions.

• To play Sportstake 8, you first need to get your hands on a bet slip which you can find on the national lottery website or at an authorized retailer.
• Make predictions using the tick box feature.
• After all 16 selections are made, hand over the bet slip to the teller, who will give you a receipt as confirmation.

The price of one entry for Sportstake 8 is just R2.

Players can opt for multiple entries, each at the cost of R2. Maximum spend per transaction is limited to R2000.

1. Unlike Sportstake 13 where you predict the result of 13 football games, in Sportstake 8, you need to predict the results of each half of 8 football games, which means you need to make 16 selections in total
2. For each half, you need to predict whether the home team is leading at the end of the half or whether the score line is tied at the end of the half or whether the away team is leading at the end of the half
3. If you choose 1 then you predict a win for the home team
4. If you choose x then you predict a draw

And

5. If you choose 2 then you predict a win for the away team
6. If you are not sure which team is the home team and which team is the away team, you can always remember the rule of thumb that the first team’s name mentioned is always the home team. For example, if the fixture is listed as Chelsea Vs. Liverpool, you can deduce that Chelsea is the home team and Liverpool is the away team.
7. Once all 16 selections are made, you can pay R2 to the teller or pay online at the Ithuba website to confirm your entry.
8. You will now receive a receipt which you need to safe keep since you will be required to produce this receipt in case you win any of the prizes and need to claim it
9. The jackpot prize is won if you match all 16 selections. The odds of this happening for each entry is 1:1,159,323. However, three other prize divisions are awarded for matching 15, 14 or even 13 selections.
10. Remember, results are determined by excluding extra–time or penalty shootouts but by including the injury time added by the referee at the end of each half.

If you are not too confident in some of your predictions, you can always use the Propick option, where a mix of random and expert selections are made on your behalf. All 16 selections are made automatically using various data integration and processing techniques.
