Prior to the start of select live sporting events each Sunday, users will be presented with a ‘pick’em’ (a game in which neither team is favoured with odds), featuring in-depth competitive aspects such as contests and leaderboards. This is a feature which spans across all FuboTV connected TV, smart TV, gaming consoles and mobile apps and website.

There’s no money involved at launch, but FuboTV said that it “will introduce prizing” at a later date.
