Sports Odds Tracker — Moneyline, Spread & Line Movement

Name the leagues — NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL, WNBA, college football and basketball, and soccer leagues such as the Premier League, La Liga, Bundesliga, Serie A, Ligue 1 and MLS — and get one clean row per upcoming game and sportsbook: moneyline, spread and over/under total (plus the draw price in soccer), the opening line, and how far the line has moved since it opened. $1.00 per 1,000 rows, no login, no API key.

Run it again — or put it on a schedule — and every row also tells you what changed since your last run: changedSinceLastRun, the previous moneyline, spread and total, and the move in each (moneylineMove, spreadMove, totalMove), plus isNew for games whose lines have just appeared. ESPN only shows you today's line; the history comes from your own runs.

The odds are as ESPN publishes them from its odds providers, for information. This is data, not betting advice. northbell does not take bets and the rows contain no links to sportsbooks — only to ESPN's game page.

What you get

Every row has type (odds, note or error), league (for an error row about a name ESPN does not know, the name you typed) and observedAt.

Field	What it is
league, leagueName, eventId, name, url	the league key you gave (nfl, eng.1), its name, ESPN's game id, the game (Philadelphia Eagles at Jacksonville Jaguars) and its ESPN page
startAt, home, away, venue, neutralSite	kick-off time (ISO, UTC), the two teams, where it is played and whether ESPN marks the venue as neutral (null where ESPN does not say, as in soccer)
provider, providerId	the sportsbook ESPN credits for the line (see Notes)
homeMoneyline, awayMoneyline, drawMoneyline	American odds (-345, +275); drawMoneyline is soccer only
homeDecimal, awayDecimal, drawDecimal, moneylineFavorite	the same prices as decimal odds, and the team with the shorter price (null when level)
spread, spreadFavorite, homeSpreadOdds, awaySpreadOdds	the home team's spread (-7.5 = home gives 7.5 points; the run line in MLB, the puck line in NHL, the goal handicap in soccer), the team giving the points, and the price on each side
overUnder, overOdds, underOdds	the game total and the price on over and under
details	ESPN's own one-line summary of the favourite (JAX -7.5, ARS -260)
openHomeMoneyline, openAwayMoneyline, openDrawMoneyline, openSpread, openOverUnder	the opening line, as ESPN lists it
moneylineMoveSinceOpen, spreadMoveSinceOpen, totalMoveSinceOpen	current line minus opening line. Negative spreadMoveSinceOpen = the home team became a bigger favourite; negative moneylineMoveSinceOpen = the home price shortened
changedSinceLastRun, isNew, previousObservedAt	whether any price or line differs from your previous run, whether this game and book had no row last time, and when it was last read
previousHomeMoneyline, previousAwayMoneyline, previousDrawMoneyline, previousSpread, previousOverUnder	the values from your previous run
moneylineMove, spreadMove, totalMove	change since your previous run: totalMove of +1 = the total was raised by a point; moneylineMove counts American-odds points over even money (-110 to +105 is 15, not 215), negative = the home price shortened

All since-last-run fields are null on the first run of a league. A league with nothing to show gets one free note row (gamesInWindow, message); a league ESPN does not know, or cannot be read, gets a free error row (message).

Run it again and again

• On a schedule — save your input as a task and add a Schedule: the same leagues several times a day. Send each run to Google Sheets, Slack or email with an integration on the task.
• Watch for changes — Keep the same input on the schedule. Each run is its own dataset with the date it ran, so the series builds up run by run and you can compare one day with the last.
• In bulk — Pick every league in Leagues in one run.

Use it for

• Line-movement tracking — schedule a run every hour or every day and filter on changedSinceLastRun to see which games moved and by how much
• Your own odds history — ESPN serves no history of its own, so a scheduled run is how you build one, row by row, for backtests and models
• Dashboards, sheets, newsletters and apps — a weekly card of lines for the NFL, a matchday table for the Premier League
• Comparing books in soccer — add "providers": ["all"] to get DraftKings and Bet 365 side by side where ESPN lists both

Input

{ "leagues": ["nfl", "nba", "eng.1"], "days": 3 }

• leagues — nfl, nba, mlb, nhl, wnba, college-football, mens-college-basketball, womens-college-basketball, and soccer: eng.1 (Premier League), eng.2, eng.3, esp.1, ger.1, ita.1, fra.1, usa.1 (MLS), mex.1, ned.1, por.1, sco.1, tur.1, bra.1, arg.1, jpn.1, ksa.1, uefa.champions, uefa.europa, uefa.europa.conf, fifa.world. Names like epl, laliga, bundesliga, mls, ncaaf work too. Other ESPN soccer codes are accepted.
• days — games starting within this many days from now (1 to 14, default 3).
• providers — optional: leave empty for the book ESPN shows on its scoreboard, name a book (Bet 365) to return only that book, or all.

Previous values are remembered per league in a named key-value store in your Apify account (sports-odds-tracker), so the second run of the same Actor already shows changes. Schedule it (Apify → Schedules) to keep a running history.

Pricing

$1.00 per 1,000 odds rows (one row = one game from one sportsbook), plus $0.01 per run. Note and error rows are free. The $0.01 run-start fee is the one charge every run pays, even one that returns nothing.

Notes

• Pre-game only. Games that have started or finished are skipped. startAt decides the window, so days: 1 means the next 24 hours.
• Opening line and current line. ESPN lists an "open" and a current value for every line; the open… fields are ESPN's open value and the main fields are the current line until the game starts. ESPN's own line-history endpoint returned no points for any game I tried, so there is no row type for intermediate moves — for those, run on a schedule.
• Not every game has odds yet. ESPN shows a line only once the sportsbook has posted it, and that comes at different times in different leagues. Measured on 2026-10-08 over the next 14 days: NFL 29 of 30 games and Premier League 20 of 20 had a line; college football 55 of 55 games in the next 3 days; NBA 6 of 7 games starting within 24 hours but none of 43 games 1 to 10 days out (the season-opening games further out did have one); NHL 10 of 10 within 24 hours, 2 of 18 between 24 and 72 hours, none later; MLB 2 of 16. A game without odds gets no row (the run summary counts it in gamesWithoutOdds); a league where no game has odds gets one free note row, and so does an out-of-season league. For NBA, NHL and MLB, run close to game time.
• Sportsbooks. By default each game's row is the book ESPN shows on its scoreboard: DraftKings (providerId 100), or Bet 365 where the scoreboard has no DraftKings line for the game (1 of 9 Bundesliga games on 2026-10-08). ESPN spells DraftKings "Draft Kings" in the NFL, NHL and college football and "DraftKings" elsewhere; provider is always "DraftKings". Naming a book other than DraftKings in providers — or all — makes the run also read ESPN's per-game odds feed, one extra request per game, which is where Bet 365 appears. On 2026-10-08 Bet 365 was listed for Premier League, Championship, Bundesliga, Serie A, Ligue 1 and Champions League games and for 2 of 10 MLS games, and not for La Liga, Liga MX, Eredivisie, J1 League, NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL or college football. ESPN decides which books it lists, and that can change.
• Bet 365 rows are thinner. ESPN gives moneyline and total for Bet 365 as decimal odds (converted to American odds here; the decimal value is kept in homeDecimal, awayDecimal, drawDecimal), with no spread, no opening line and no details.
• Fields that are only filled sometimes. drawMoneyline, drawDecimal and the openDraw… fields: soccer only. neutralSite: US leagues only. moneylineFavorite: null when both prices are level. Heavy favourites in college football can come with a spread and a total but no moneyline.
• Soccer spread. The spread in soccer is the goal handicap ESPN lists (for example -1.5), not a three-way price.
• The run summary (the OUTPUT record) counts oddsRows, gamesWithoutOdds, newSinceLastRun and changedSinceLastRun. Stored values for games that started more than 36 hours ago are dropped.

For AI agents

{"leagues": ["nfl"], "days": 7} returns one row per NFL game in the next 7 days that has a line, with moneyline, spread, total, the opening line and changedSinceLastRun. Rows have type: odds, note (a league with nothing to show) or error. Odds are information as published by ESPN, not betting advice.
