La Quiniela prizes: how many correct picks win money

Published on 12 November 2026

You win La Quiniela from 10 correct picks out of 14. Prize tiers, real 2026-27 payouts for 10 to 13 correct, the 1.50 euro rule and your odds of each prize.


In La Quiniela, you win money from 10 correct picks out of 14. La Quiniela is Spain's official football pools game, run by the state lottery operator Loterías y Apuestas del Estado: each week you predict 1 (home win), X (draw) or 2 (away win) for 14 matches, plus a 15th match, the Pleno al 15, where you predict each team's goals.

It is a pari-mutuel game, so prizes are not fixed. Under the rules in force in 2026, 55% of each matchday's sales go to prizes, split into six tiers and shared equally among the winning bets in each tier:

TierCorrect picksShare of sales
Special14 + Pleno al 157.5% (plus jackpot)
1st1416%
2nd137.5%
3rd127.5%
4th117.5%
5th109%

How many correct picks do you need to win La Quiniela? At least 10 of the 14 matches. Nine or fewer pays nothing, and the Pleno al 15 only counts if you also got all 14 right.

A real example: on matchday 10 of the 2026-27 season, sales were 728,881.50 euros and nobody hit 14. Thirteen correct picks paid 2,484.82 euros (22 winners), 12 paid 138.40 euros, 11 paid 14.47 euros and 10 paid just 2.96 euros across 22,173 winning bets. The unclaimed top tiers rolled into the jackpot.

Two rules catch players out. If the 10-correct prize works out below 1.50 euros per bet, it is not paid and the money goes to the jackpot instead. And 8 correct picks only pay in Elige 8, a separate optional game on the same slip. A single bet costs 0.75 euros, with a minimum of two bets (1.50 euros). Prizes above 40,000 euros carry a 20% withholding on the amount over that threshold.

What are the odds of 10 correct picks in La Quiniela? Picking completely at random, about 1 in 299 per bet, against 1 in 4,782,969 for all 14. Knowing the teams improves those odds a lot.

Matchday 21 is open now: see the matchday 21 hub, with bets closing on Saturday 14 November at 13:00 Spanish time and Spain vs England as the Pleno al 15. Every matchday of the season is in the 2026-27 archive.
