Two Worcester pubs are offering free pints during the World Cup if fans can correctly guess the score.

The Goodrest Tavern and the Old Greyhound are participating in a predictor game where punters can win a pint from a selection draught products if they correctly guess the score of England games.

The game, powered by Wireless Social, is set to run throughout the tournament, aiming to foster a lively World Cup atmosphere in community pubs.

All 27 establishments involved are part of 'Proper Pubs', an arm of Admiral Taverns with more than 200 pubs across England, Scotland and Wales.

A spokesperson for Proper Pubs said: "Whether customers are cheering on their favourite team, predicting the score, or simply soaking up the World Cup atmosphere, it's a brilliant way for local communities to come together and enjoy the football."
