Football fixtures today, explained

Today's fixture list covers 50+ competitions, from the Premier League, La Liga, Serie A, Bundesliga and Ligue 1 to the Champions League, domestic cups and leagues outside Europe. Kickoff times show in your own timezone, and the list updates with live scores while matches are being played.

Scores, goals and cards update continuously while a match is being played — typically within a minute of the action. When a match ends it switches to the full-time result with the complete stats and events timeline.

Yes. The date strip at the top of the list moves to any day: upcoming fixtures with kickoff times in your local timezone, or past days with final scores. Filters narrow the list to the competitions you follow.

Kickoff times are set by each competition and its broadcasters. A Saturday in Europe runs from early-afternoon domestic fixtures through to late-evening kickoffs in Spain and Portugal, while matches in Brazil and MLS start after European viewers have gone to bed. Every kickoff time on this page is converted to your own timezone.

A match preview is a plain-English read on a fixture written before it kicks off, not a report written afterwards. Each one comes from Sirius, Oddsivio's prediction model, which weighs up to 18 factors — Elo team ratings, recent form, league position, missing players, rest days and head-to-head record among them — into a probability for a home win, a draw and an away win. The preview freezes at kickoff and is checked against the final score after full time.

No, and that is deliberate. Friendlies are excluded because pre-season and international friendly results carry too little signal to forecast honestly — in July and August they can be more than half of all fixtures. Sirius also declines on competitive matches where the evidence is too thin, such as a newly promoted side with no comparable history, publishing nothing rather than guessing.
