Knipser ist ein Tippspiel für Fußballfreunde – mit einem Unterschied: Deine Punkte hängen an der echten Wettquote. Wer den Favoriten tippt, bekommt wenig. Wer den Außenseiter richtig einschätzt, räumt ab. Damit bleibt bis zum letzten Spieltag alles offen – auch wenn du zwischendurch hinten liegst. SO ENTSTEHEN DIE PUNKTE Knipser holt für jedes Spiel die aktuelle Quote und rechnet die Buchmacher-Marge heraus. Daraus ergeben sich drei Stufen: • Richtiger Sieger – Quote × 10 • Dazu die richtige Tordifferenz – Quote × 15 • Exaktes Ergebnis – Quote × 20 Ein 1:0 der Bayern gegen den Aufsteiger bringt ein paar Punkte. Ein 2:1 des Außenseiters kann ein ganzes Wochenende entscheiden. DEINE RUNDE • Gruppe gründen und Freunde per Link einladen • Rangliste, die live mitrechnet – Tor für Tor • Gruppenchat direkt neben der Tabelle • Statistiken: Trefferquote, längste Serie, beste Quote, Abzeichen WÄHREND DES SPIELS • Live-Spielstand und Spielminute • Ticker mit Toren, Karten und Wechseln • Aufstellungen und Spielerbewertungen • Statistik von Expected Goals bis Passquote DIESE WETTBEWERBE 1. und 2. Bundesliga, DFB-Pokal, Champions League und Europa League. Jede Gruppe entscheidet selbst, worauf getippt wird. GUT ZU WISSEN Knipser ist kostenlos und zeigt keine Werbung.
