Use GET /v1/football/fixtures to build fixture lists, live score pages, match centers, and daily schedules.

Request fixtures by date

  "https://api.nextsportsapi.com/v1/football/fixtures?date=2026-08-16&timezone=Asia/Tokyo" \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"

Filter by league and season

curl --request GET \

Get live fixtures

curl --request GET \
  "https://api.nextsportsapi.com/v1/football/fixtures?live=all" \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"

Recommended workflow

Use GET /v1/football/leagues to discover supported league public IDs and coverage.
Use GET /v1/football/fixtures?date=YYYY-MM-DD for daily schedule pages.
Use GET /v1/football/fixtures?live=all only for live score surfaces.
Use GET /v1/football/fixtures/events, lineups, and statistics for match detail pages.

Caching

Upcoming fixture schedules can be cached longer than live fixtures. Once a fixture is live, poll only active fixture IDs or active league IDs instead of repeatedly polling all competitions.
