Basketball Match Scraper — Scores & Match Intel

Basketball scores and full match context from Flashscore, structured for automation and AI agents.

Match Intel — the full picture per game (flag enrich: true). Turn any game into a complete report: quarter-by-quarter breakdown (1Q→4Q + overtimes, incl. live partial quarters), per-period match statistics (points, rebounds, assists, shooting %, PIR… where provided by the source), recent form & head-to-head, competition standings when available, venue/city info — and optional bookmaker odds comparison (opt-in via odds: true): default markets 1X2, Over/Under, Asian Handicap (the live-betting decision markets), more markets selectable via oddsMarkets. Bookmaker ids, handicap/total lines and odds movement included — best-effort: availability varies by market and region (US/EU datacenter IPs see the widest coverage).

One run returns every game of a day (default: today) across 150+ competitions — NBA, EuroLeague, EuroCup, Liga ACB, BBL, LNB, NBL, NCAA, internationals and more — as clean JSON rows, one per game. Browse ±3 days, filter by league or status.

Enrichment blocks (enrich: true)

• statistics — per-period rows (period: FT/1H/2H semantics for halves where the league reports them, labelled rows like points, rebounds, assists, shooting percentages)
• h2h — recent form (last N games) + head-to-head meetings between the two teams
• standings — competition table when available
• venue / city / capacity
• odds — opt-in, scheduled/live only, default 3 markets (1X2, Over/Under, Asian Handicap)

Pricing & notes

• Pay-per-event, billed per returned game: list mode pushes one row per game (a 400-game day ≈ 400 match-listed events ≈ $0.40). No subscription, no per-run fee.
• Enrichment billed per enriched game as match-intel.
• Live games report current score, clock and partial quarter at scrape time.
• Status normalization: Finished, After Overtime, Postponed, Abandoned, Cancelled…
• Odds & statistics availability varies by league and region — graceful nulls, never a crash.
