Friends and family can additionally now form custom leagues, competing against each other and football experts to nab weekly prizes as well as the all-important bragging rights, adds Opera.

As popular as the Predictor game has proven to be among football fans, Opera says that its users across Africa have nevertheless been clamoring for a new 'Shake and Win'. The last edition, held in June, was met with widespread engagement, as over 46 million shakes were recorded across the course of the contest.
