Football Knockout is the easiest way to run a last man standing football game with friends. Each gameweek, every player picks one Premier League team to win. Pick correctly and you survive to the next week. Pick wrong and you lose a life — run out of lives and you are out.
You may know this format as last one standing or a survivor football pool. The rules are the same: one pick per week, each team can only be used once, and the last player standing wins the round.
No more chasing mates on WhatsApp or updating a spreadsheet. Football Knockout handles picks, deadlines, eliminations and standings automatically — so you can focus on the banter.
Whether it is your pub crew, university mates or five-a-side group chat, a last man standing game for friends turns every Premier League weekend into a shared event. Stake a pint, a prize pot or just bragging rights — the competition runs itself.
Invite friends with a single league code. Everyone gets pick reminders before the deadline, sees live bookmaker odds to help their choice, and can follow who is still in from their phone on matchday.
League admins can set 1 to 3 lives, choose what happens when someone forgets a pick, and start new rounds when the survivor pool ends — perfect for a season-long rivalry with friends.

If your team draws or loses and you have no lives left, you are knocked out that gameweek. When the round finishes, your league admin can create a new round so everyone gets another shot at being the last one standing.
