FourFourTwo's Dating Game takes a page out of the Wordle playbook: all you have to do is enter your four-digit number guess, and the system will instantly give you feedback by lighting up the digits.

Correct numbers in the correct position will shine bright in green, letting you know you’re one step closer to victory: those that are in the wrong position will light up orange, while the rest will stay greyed out. You have a maximum of six attempts to try and guess the exact date that we're looking for.

The pressure is on, and the clock is ticking on your daily challenge. Think you’re up to the challenge of getting today’s date in the fewest attempts possible?

Handpicked football quizzes we know you'll love

If you’re still seeking that particular, satisfying challenge, we have a fresh set of tough questions waiting for you, courtesy of Kwizly.

We begin with an intense test of England commitment, focusing on those who truly went the distance. How many of the modern-day stalwarts can you recall: name England's all-time appearance makers since 1990 for your first test. Following that, we return to the net: see if you can achieve true mastery by naming every goalkeeper with 50 or more Premier League clean sheets. That requires serious recall across multiple seasons.

Next, we swap patriotic duty for financial muscle. Think you know your nine-figure fees? Try to name the biggest signings of the 2020s so far. From the world-beating stars to the occasional flop, this quiz separates the transfer gurus from the novices. For a slice of recent history and a celebration of youth, see if you can remember the entire cast from the successful generation: can you name every member of England under-21s' 2023 Euros-winning squad?

Finally, for something utterly different, why not tackle FourFourTwo's Weekend Crossword 27, with clues on No.9s, derbies and debutant codes? It's the perfect way to spend a gentle Saturday afternoon.
