FotMob Scraper - Live Scores, xG, Ratings & Standings

Unofficial community Actor. Not affiliated with FotMob.

FotMob scraper and FotMob API alternative for football fixtures, live scores, league standings, match details (lineups, xG, player ratings), team squads, player profiles, transfers, and search — in one Actor. Pull structured JSON with Python, Node.js, cURL, or MCP. Optional locale=de for German URLs and Accept-Language.

Sports data suite

Actor	Role
FotMob Scraper ◄── you are here	Football scores, xG, ratings, standings, transfers
PrizePicks Player Props Scraper	US DFS pick'em lines
Underdog Fantasy Player Props	Underdog props & odds
DFS Multi-Source Props Scraper	Cross-platform props board

Suite next step: after FotMob match ratings / xG, run PrizePicks Player Props Scraper or DFS Multi-Source Props Scraper to join player form with live pick'em lines.

When to use

• Pull today's fixtures, live scores, and final results across all competitions in one run
• Export Bundesliga / Premier League standings, season fixtures, and top scorers
• Deep-dive a match: lineups, events, team stats (xG), per-player ratings
• Load team squads or player profiles by FotMob id / URL
• Track the transfers feed or search teams and players by name
• Chain date matches → match details with enrichMatchDetails (no glue Actors)

When not to use: deep market-value / transfer-fee history — this Actor focuses on FotMob scores, ratings, and match analytics.

Key features

• Eight modes — matches, leagues, league, match, team, player, transfers, search (+ auto)
• One Actor vs fragmented suites — directory → standings → match details without hopping listings
• Enrich toggle — enrichMatchDetails expands fixtures into full detail records in the same run
• xG & ratings — team stats and per-player ratings when FotMob publishes them
• Locale — en or de (German site paths / language headers; same global ids)
• HTTP-first — curl_cffi Chrome TLS against FotMob /api/data/*; browser not required
• Failed lookups not written — only successful records land in the dataset

FAQ

Do I need a FotMob account?
No. The Actor uses public JSON endpoints — no login required.

Is German /de a different dataset?
No — locale only affects language headers and URL prefix. Competition and match ids are global.

How do I find league or match ids?
Run mode=leagues or mode=search, or start from mode=matches and read matchId / leagueId on each row.

Can I get historical seasons?
Yes — mode=league with seasons like 2024/2025 when FotMob lists that season under availableSeasons.

What about transfers vs Transfermarkt?
This Actor exposes FotMob's transfers feed (recent moves). Deep fee histories belong in a Transfermarkt-focused tool.

Can I use this as a FotMob API alternative in production?
Yes for scheduled pipelines and exports (JSON/CSV). Respect fair use and FotMob terms; endpoints can change.
