Get Chelsea scores in code

The events endpoint returns the whole Women's Super League scoreboard, so keep the games where either team id is 19970.

curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $RSA_API_KEY" \
  "https://www.realtimesportsapi.com/api/v1/sports/soccer/leagues/eng.w.1/teams/19970"

# This team's games in the current scoreboard (filter by team id 19970)
curl -s -H "Authorization: Bearer $RSA_API_KEY" "https://www.realtimesportsapi.com/api/v1/sports/soccer/leagues/eng.w.1/events" \
  | jq '.data[] | select(.homeTeam.id == "19970" or .awayTeam.id == "19970") | {name, date, status: .status.detail, home: .homeTeam.score, away: .awayTeam.score}'

const TEAM_ID = "19970"; // Chelsea
const res = await fetch("https://www.realtimesportsapi.com/api/v1/sports/soccer/leagues/eng.w.1/events", {
  headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${process.env.RSA_API_KEY}` }
});
const { data } = await res.json();
const games = data.filter((e) => e.homeTeam.id === TEAM_ID || e.awayTeam.id === TEAM_ID);
for (const g of games) {
  console.log(g.shortName, g.status.detail, `${g.awayTeam.score}-${g.homeTeam.score}`);
}

import os, requests

TEAM_ID = "19970"  # Chelsea
res = requests.get(
    "https://www.realtimesportsapi.com/api/v1/sports/soccer/leagues/eng.w.1/events",
    headers={"Authorization": f"Bearer {os.environ['RSA_API_KEY']}"},
    timeout=10,
)
for g in res.json()["data"]:
    if TEAM_ID in (g["homeTeam"]["id"], g["awayTeam"]["id"]):
        print(g["shortName"], g["status"]["detail"], g["awayTeam"]["score"], g["homeTeam"]["score"])

Using the Realtime Sports MCP server (https://www.realtimesportsapi.com/api/mcp), call get_schedule with sport "soccer" and league "eng.w.1" for the next 14 days and list the Chelsea games (team id 19970) with dates and opponents; then call get_live_events and tell me if they are playing now.

FAQ

How do I get live Chelsea scores in JSON?

Call GET https://www.realtimesportsapi.com/api/v1/sports/soccer/leagues/eng.w.1/events/live with a free API key and keep the games where homeTeam.id or awayTeam.id is "19970". The live endpoint returns the score, period, clock and status for games in progress. Data is aggregated from public sources and is typically 20-30 seconds behind live play (about 1 second after our source). There is no SLA.

Is there a free Chelsea API?

Yes. The Free plan of Realtime Sports API is $0 with 1,000 calls in the first 30 days, then 125 calls per month, no card. The same key covers every Women's Super League team and the other leagues.

What is the Chelsea team id?

"19970" in league "eng.w.1" (sport "soccer"). Use it with /sports/soccer/leagues/eng.w.1/teams/19970 for team details and /sports/soccer/leagues/eng.w.1/teams/19970/roster for the roster, and to filter events by homeTeam.id or awayTeam.id.

When is the next Chelsea game?

Chelsea host Tottenham Hotspur on Sun, Oct 18, 7:00 AM ET at Stamford Bridge. Times are US Eastern; this page refreshes hourly.

Does the API include Chelsea betting odds?

Not reliably. No upcoming games to check when verified. The odds endpoint returns data: null when a game has no odds.

Can I get Chelsea score alerts pushed to me?

Yes, on paid plans: register a webhook for event.score_change and event.final filtered to league "eng.w.1", then keep deliveries where data.homeTeam.id or data.awayTeam.id is "19970" (webhooks filter by league, not team). WebSocket works the same way.
