The previous chapter discussed seasons and schedules and how to use the endpoints to create the perfect schedules for your web application. This section will teach you about livescores and fixtures.
These two closely-related endpoints work together to give you complete match data:
Real-time match updates for active games:
Lightweight and fast
Only return data in a 15-minute window before kickoff, when the match is inplay and until 15 minutes after the match has concluded
Same data structure as fixtures
Use for: Live scoreboards, real-time tracking
Complete match data with full flexibility:
Access any time (past, present, future)
10 endpoint options (by date, team, H2H, etc.)
Complete match details and metadata
Use for: Match details pages, schedules, historical analysis
Recommended Workflow: Use livescores for real-time updates → Use fixtures for detailed match information
