Bundesliga Stats Scraper
Scrape Bundesliga player statistics from the official league leaderboards, up to a million rows per run. Every row includes the player, club, season, and the stat value you asked for. No login, no API key. Export to CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML.
The official Bundesliga website publishes leaderboards for goals, assists, shots, passes, tackles, cards, minutes played, and appearances, but there is no public API and copying by hand is slow. This Actor reads those leaderboards directly, filtered by season, and returns each player's row in one fixed schema. It works for the current season or any past season you specify.
| Who uses it | What they scrape Bundesliga for |
|---|---|
| Fantasy football managers | Which players lead the league in goals, assists, or shots before setting a lineup |
| Sports journalists | Current season leaderboards for match previews and player profiles |
| Data analysts | Historical Bundesliga stats across seasons for trend analysis |
| Betting model builders | Player performance data to feed prediction models |
| Football scouts | Which players are topping tackles, passes, or minutes played this season |

Troubleshooting
Why am I getting no results?
Check the season identifier. If it is wrong or malformed, the league site may return an empty leaderboard. Leave the season field empty to scrape the current season.
Why did I only get 10 rows?
Free runs are limited to 10 items as a preview. Upgrade to a paid plan and set maxItems to a higher number.
The stat values look wrong for a past season.
Make sure you used the exact season identifier from the Bundesliga URL. A typo can silently fall back to the current season.
Can I get more than one stat category at once?
No. Run the Actor once per category, then merge the datasets on player and season.
The run failed with a timeout.
The Bundesliga site may be slow. Retry the run, or reduce maxItems to a smaller number.
