Bet365 Live Scores API | Real-Time Sports Scores, 13 Sports

From Zen Studio, creators of Bet365 Sports Data, Bet365 Odds and Flashscore Tennis. Match tracking, sports research and betting data from the same team.

Why choose this actor?

• Follow the score by quarter, set or half. Get basketball quarter scores, tennis set scores and football halftime scores alongside the total, match clock and status. Track multiple competitions together or filter by sport and team.
• Put each result in context. Recent form and rankings help you compare opponents. Match detail adds tennis tiebreaks, lineups, player heatmaps, goals, cards, substitutions and missing-player reasons where available.
• Connect scores with odds and deeper stats. Competition scores can include Bet365 win/draw/win odds in decimal, fractional and American formats. Open an individual football match for up to 46 stat types, including xG and possession.

Open actor input, select NBA, then click Start to preview current and recent games. Completed games can include quarter-by-quarter scores; upcoming games will not have scores yet. Export the dataset as JSON, CSV or Excel.

For ongoing match tracking, call the endpoints below over HTTP. /live returns live scores; /scores returns competition games and available odds. Use a returned gameId with /game/{id} for detailed match data. Odds are available on /scores, not /live; detailed fields vary by sport and match.

FAQ

Do I need to start the actor before calling it? No. Call the endpoints directly. The service answers each request and scales with demand; there is nothing to start, schedule or keep alive.

Can I use this in batch mode? Yes. Pick a competition preset and click Start to get scores pushed to the dataset. For production use, the REST endpoints give you real-time access. For historical data, player profiles, or transfers, use the companion Bet365 Sports Data Scraper actor.

Why no odds on /live? The live games data source doesn't include betting data. Odds are available on /scores, which uses a different data source that supports them.

What countries block odds? Bet365 odds are included automatically on /scores when includeOdds=true (the default).

How often can I poll? No rate limits from the API. Poll as frequently as you need. Every 30-60 seconds is typical for live tracking.

What do I pay? Only the per-request price. There is no compute charge, and nothing to pay while you are not calling it.

What's the difference between this and the Bet365 Odds actor? This actor provides live scores, lineups, statistics, and match events. The Odds actor provides betting odds and markets. Different data, different use cases. Use both together for a complete picture.

Can I get historical scores? /scores returns recent and upcoming games for a competition (typically the current round plus a few past rounds). For deep historical data, use the Bet365 Sports Data Scraper actor.
