If you reckon you know your football inside out, BBC Sport's trio of daily quizzes offer a proper workout for even the most seasoned supporter. Whether you're a casual fan or someone who can rattle off squad numbers from the 1994 Champions League, there's something here to humble you.
What Are the Daily Football Quizzes?
BBC Sport runs three distinct quiz formats each day, each designed to test a different aspect of your football knowledge.
- Who Am I? — A progressive clue-based challenge where you guess a footballer using as few hints as possible. The fewer clues you need, the higher your score. It rewards genuine depth of knowledge rather than lucky guesses.
- Five in Five — Five questions, five minutes on the clock. Straightforward in concept, but the pressure of the timer has a way of making obvious answers vanish from your memory at precisely the wrong moment.
- Brainteaser — The most unforgiving of the three. One fiendishly difficult question with five lives standing between you and an embarrassing reveal. Not for the faint-hearted.
Why Daily Quizzes Are Worth Your Time
There's a tendency to dismiss football quizzes as light entertainment, but they serve a genuine purpose for anyone who takes the game seriously. Engaging with players, clubs and moments across different eras keeps your knowledge active rather than letting it calcify around whichever era you first fell in love with football.
The rotating daily format also means there's no gaming the system. You can't memorise last week's answers and coast through — each morning brings a fresh set of questions that demand you actually know your stuff. That structure is what separates a decent quiz from a genuinely useful one.
For those who enjoy the competitive element, BBC Sport allows you to track points on the Who Am I? format, giving you something concrete to measure yourself against on a day-to-day basis.
Where to Find More
BBC Sport hosts dedicated Football Quizzes and Sports Quizzes pages where previous editions are archived. If you want a particular challenge, their back catalogue includes efforts such as naming every club in the Premier League and EFL, as well as identifying England's most-capped women's internationals — a question that catches more people out than you might expect.
You can also sign up for notifications so the latest quizzes land directly on your device, which is worth doing if you like to tackle them fresh before the answers start circulating on social media.
A Note on Using These Well
The real value of a daily quiz habit isn't the score — it's what it surfaces. When a clue stumps you, that's useful information. It tells you where your knowledge has gaps, whether that's in the women's game, lower-league history, or international football beyond the traditional powerhouses. Use that discomfort productively rather than skipping formats that feel unfamiliar.
BBC Sport's questions are set daily, so the range and difficulty shift regularly. Some days will suit those steeped in Premier League history; others will reward fans who follow the broader game closely. That variety is the point.
