Football Prediction API

Accurate, fast and production-ready football (soccer) predictions and match insights powered by historical data, team & player stats, and machine learning models. Built for developers, analysts, fantasy managers and betting platforms.

Why use this API?

Data-driven predictions: Score forecasts, win/draw/loss probabilities, expected goals (xG) estimates, and confidence scores based on historical performance and form.
Easy integration: Simple REST endpoints, JSON responses, and example client code (cURL, Node, Python).
Real-time & batch support: Request single predictions by match_id
Scalable & reliable: Rate-limited tiers, quick response times, and monitoring-ready for production use.

How to Use the Football Prediction API

To get accurate match predictions, you can follow a simple workflow using our endpoints. The API is designed to be flexible, so you can fetch data step by step depending on your use case.

1. Get Available Leagues

Start by retrieving all available leagues using the /leagues endpoint. This gives you the IDs and basic information needed to filter matches and teams.

GET /leagues

2. Find Matches

Use the /matches endpoint to retrieve matches by different filters:

By Date – get all matches happening on a specific day.
By League & Season – filter fixtures for a competition and season.
By Status – check upcoming, live, or finished matches.

GET /matches?date=2025-09-14
GET /matches?league_id=39&season=2025
GET /matches?status=NS

3. Explore Teams

You can fetch team information either by ID or by league:

GET /team?id=1 — details about a specific team.
GET /teams?league_id=39 — list of all teams in a league.

This is useful for enriching predictions with team context, displaying logos, stats, or names.

4. Get Match Predictions

Once you have a match_id from the /matches endpoint, request its prediction using /prediction:

GET /prediction?match_id=12345

The response includes predicted scoreline, win/draw/lose probabilities, and model confidence.

Recommended Usage Flow

Call /leagues to choose your competition of interest.
Fetch matches using /matches (filter by date, season, or status).
Select a match and get detailed team info via /teams if needed.
Retrieve prediction for that match using /prediction.

Tips for Developers

Cache static data like leagues and teams — they change rarely, saving you requests.
Use match filters wisely — query by date or league to avoid unnecessary large responses.
Respect rate limits — batch requests or implement short caching for frequent queries.
Combine endpoints — for example, get today’s Premier League fixtures and instantly fetch predictions for all of them.

Example use case: A live score app can pull today's matches, display teams, and attach predictions to each fixture in one flow.

Use Cases

Fantasy football platforms — generate personalized recommendations and risk scores.
Betting & odds compilers — create probability-based odds and market signals.
Sports media & analytics — embed predicted outcomes and visualizations in articles or dashboards.
Mobile apps — deliver live pre-match predictions and push updates to users.

SDKs & Integration
