Prematch or live
oddsType selects between prematch and
live odds. Omit it and you get prematch.
The two refresh at different rates. Prematch odds refresh multiple times a day, and live odds once every 10 minutes.
Querying
At least one primary query parameter must be specified. timezone,
limit, offset and oddsType are secondary and do
not count on their own.
The most popular approach is matchId. Alternatively use
date with timezone to fetch all match odds for a given day.
leagueName, bookmakerId and bookmakerName narrow
it further, and bookmaker ids come from
bookmakers.
Supported markets
| Market | Outcomes |
|---|---|
| Full Time Result | Home, Away or Draw. |
| Moneyline |
The two way version, offered when a game has no three way moneyline.
|
| Spread |
Complex. Split into variants such as "Spread -28.5/+28.5". Each variant
resolves to Home or Away.
|
| Totals |
Complex. Variants such as "Totals 25" or "Totals 25.5". Each
resolves to Over or Under.
|
| Odd or Even | Whether the score of both teams is Odd or Even. |
How odds are grouped
Each entry in data carries a matchId and an
odds list. Every item in that list has a bookmakerId, a
type of prematch or live, the market and its
values, and may also carry a bookmakerName.
Each value is a value label and an odd price, so a Moneyline
market arrives as two of them, Home and Away.
Each market entry names its bookmaker, which is what lets you compare prices. If you
only display one bookmaker, filter by bookmakerId or
bookmakerName when you request.
