Turn Your Group Chat into a Football Stadium

FootyLiveBot is a Telegram bot that delivers real-time football match notifications, predictions, and statistics and analytics for 13000+ teams worldwide. It's built as a Telegram mini app, meaning no separate app download needed—everything works inside Telegram.

Yes! Personal use allows following 5 teams for free with unlimited notifications. Groups can follow 20 teams for free. Premium ($1-2/month) unlocks 100 teams and historical data access.

Currently available on Telegram (iOS, Android, Desktop, Web). Discord support is coming soon.

We cover 13000+ teams across all major leagues worldwide including Premier League, La Liga, Serie A, Bundesliga, Ligue 1, Champions League, Europa League, MLS, Brazilian Serie A, Argentine Primera, World Cup, Euro, and international competitions. If your team plays professionally, we probably cover it!

Extremely fast! We update match data every 20 seconds during live matches. Notifications are typically delivered within 20-40 seconds of real events happening on the field.

Unfortunately, no — live streaming isn’t available in the bot due to broadcasting rights.

But we’ve got you covered:
• For major games, we show which official TV channels or platforms are broadcasting the match in your country.
• After the match, we share official goal highlights (via ScoreBat), when available in your region and published by verified league or team sources.

This way you always know where to watch legally — and never miss the key moments.

1. Open the @footylivebot
2. Send /group command
3. Tap "Choose group chat" button
4. Select the group (you need to be admin)
5. The bot will reply to you with 3 options:
"Manage Team Subscriptions" button allows you to (un)subscribe the group to all matches of specific teams
"Manage Match Subscriptions" button allows you to (un)subscribe the group to specific matches one by one
"Notification Settings" button allows you to set up, which notifications from those matches are being sent into the group and in which language.
That's it!

The bot needs any admin permission so it can check if the user who is interacting with it is allowed to manage its subscriptions and settings or not.

Group leaderboards show prediction accuracy for all members of that specific group. They run weekly (Monday-Sunday), and points are based on prediction accuracy. Only members who made predictions appear. Privacy controls let users hide from specific groups, and leaderboards reset weekly but historical data is tracked.

Absolutely! The bot works in unlimited groups. Each group has its own subscription list (up to 20 teams per group), prediction leaderboards, social proof stats, and independent settings. Your personal subscriptions are separate from group subscriptions.

Yes! Configuration options include which competitions/teams to track, whether to post match results with cards, live goal notifications, match start announcements, daily top matches digest, and minimum match importance level. Adjust settings anytime with /channel command.

Points are awarded based on accuracy:
4 points: Exact score match (e.g., predicted 2-1, result 2-1)
3 points: Correct winner + correct goal difference
2 points: Correct winner only
0 points: Wrong prediction

Leaderboards rank users by total weekly points. Ties are broken by accuracy percentage.
