Football Odds API
Real-time and pre-match odds from Bet365, Pinnacle, Betfair Exchange and Kambi - plus full match data in one API.
The only odds API that combines sharp bookmaker lines with fixtures, lineups, player stats, and form. One integration. No stitching together multiple providers.
Sharp Books. Retail Coverage. Exchange Pricing.
Four bookmakers chosen to give you the full picture - the sharpest lines, the widest coverage, true market prices, and regulated operator data.
Pinnacle
Sharpest LinesThe reference book for closing line value. Pinnacle accepts winning bettors and sets the sharpest lines in the market - making their odds the gold standard for model calibration.
Bet365
Widest CoverageThe largest retail sportsbook globally. Bet365 offers the widest coverage across leagues, markets, and match types - essential for any odds comparison or betting app.
Betfair Exchange
True Market PricePeer-to-peer betting exchange where the market sets the price. Betfair Exchange odds represent true consensus value - the benchmark for no-vig fair odds calculations.
Kambi
Operator NetworkThe odds engine behind dozens of regulated sportsbooks. Kambi powers operators across Europe and the US - giving you clean, consistent lines from a major B2B provider.
Every Market That Matters
1X2, Asian handicaps, corners, over/unders, BTTS, draw no bet - and many more markets across all supported bookmakers.
Match result - home, draw, away
Fractional and whole goal handicaps
Total goals lines (1.5, 2.5, 3.5+)
BTTS yes/no markets
Match result with stake return on draw

Opening Odds
The first available lines when a market opens - days or weeks before kick-off. Essential for tracking how books initially price a match.
Live Odds
Real-time in-play odds updating throughout the match. Same endpoint structure as pre-match - no separate integration required.
Closing Odds
The final lines at kick-off - the most informationally efficient prices. The standard benchmark for closing line value (CLV) analysis.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a football odds API?
A football odds API provides programmatic access to betting odds data - pre-match lines, live in-play odds, opening and closing prices - from bookmakers and exchanges. Developers use odds APIs to build betting apps, arbitrage tools, prediction models, and odds comparison platforms without scraping individual sportsbook websites.
Which bookmakers are covered by TheStatsAPI?
TheStatsAPI covers Bet365, Pinnacle, Betfair Exchange, and Kambi operators. These four represent the full spectrum of the market - the sharpest closing lines (Pinnacle), the widest retail coverage (Bet365), true exchange pricing (Betfair), and a major regulated operator network (Kambi).
Does TheStatsAPI provide Pinnacle odds?
Yes. Pinnacle odds are included across all supported markets - 1X2, Asian handicap, over/under, and more. Pinnacle is the benchmark book for closing line value (CLV) analysis and is included on every plan.
Are opening and closing odds available?
Yes. TheStatsAPI provides opening odds (the first available lines), current pre-match odds, and closing odds (the final line at kick-off) for each bookmaker. This is essential for line movement analysis, CLV tracking, and backtesting prediction models.
What football betting markets are covered?
TheStatsAPI covers 1X2 (match result), Asian handicap, over/under goals, both teams to score (BTTS), draw no bet (DNB), corners markets, and more. Market availability varies by bookmaker and competition.
Does TheStatsAPI provide live in-play odds?
Yes. Live odds are available during matches alongside pre-match lines. The same endpoint structure is used for both pre-match and live data, so integrating live odds requires no separate implementation.
How does TheStatsAPI differ from other odds APIs?
Most odds APIs are multi-sport aggregators that only provide odds data. TheStatsAPI is football-specific. The key difference is that alongside odds data, you get the full football data layer in the same API: fixtures, lineups, player statistics, team form, standings, and xG. For football use cases that need both odds and match data, TheStatsAPI eliminates the need to integrate two separate providers.
Is there a free trial?
Yes. Every plan includes a 7-day free trial with full access to all endpoints - including odds data, match statistics, player data, and historical records. No feature restrictions during the trial.
