In-Play Scanner

Filtering Matches


When you’re scanning live matches, seeing everything is almost the same as seeing nothing. Every column in the scanner has its own filter window — built for that specific stat — so you can carve hundreds of live matches down to the handful that match what you’re hunting.

Anatomy of a filter window

Click the filter icon in any column header and a window opens with three parts:

1. Preset chips — expert filters in one click

Each stat comes with ready-made presets built around how analysts actually use it: Goal fest, Corner storm, Favorite trailing, Race-to-9 zone, Upset on, BTTS bankers… Click a chip and the grid updates instantly.

2. Custom condition — when you know exactly what you want

Pick the side the condition applies to — Home, Away, Favorite, Underdog, Total, Either or the Gap between teams — choose an operator (≥, =, between…), type a value, done. “Favorite has 5+ corners” or “gap of 2+ goals” takes seconds.

3. Summary & Clear

The footer always states the active filter in plain words, with a one-click Clear.

How to tell a filter is active

The column’s filter icon gets a green tint with a red dot, and a green underline runs across the bottom of the column header — visible even when you’re scrolled deep into the grid.

Specialty filters

Some columns go beyond numbers, with filters designed around their domain:

Picks
Show only matches picked by your strategies — all of them, a specific one (or everything except one), fresh picks from the last few minutes, first-half picks, or matches where several strategies agree.
Match
Search by team name, or use matchup chips: favorite playing at home or away, top-6 clash, table gulf of 10+ places, or close neighbours in the standings.
Timer
Filter by match phase — upcoming, first half, half-time, second half, stoppage time, ended — or by a live-minute range like 70–90 for late-game setups.
1X2 & O/U odds
Odds bands (heavy favorite, around evens, value zone, longshot) that can apply to live odds or kickoff odds — “kickoff favorite at 1.50 now above 3.00” is a two-click filter.
Matched
Liquidity tiers on the exchange volume — from thin markets to £1M+ headline matches.
Form
Streaks (3+ wins or losses), form gaps between the teams, draw-heavy sides, favorites out of form, underdogs in form — plus custom win/draw/loss/points conditions over the last five matches.
Notes
Your own notes become a filter: show only matches you annotated (an instant personal watchlist), matches you haven’t reviewed yet, or notes containing a keyword.

Filtering by league

The League column has a purpose-built filter: instead of typing league names, you pick one of your saved League Filters (or All Leagues) and the scanner updates instantly.

  • Your choice is remembered as your scanner default — it stays applied the next time you open the scanner.
  • You can rename, edit, delete, or create filters right from the column — hover a filter in the list to reveal its controls.
  • The same filters are used by your strategies, so a selection you build for the scanner can be reused anywhere.

Stacking filters across columns

Filters on different columns combine — a match must pass all of them. That’s how you build views like:

  • Second half (Timer) + score is a draw (Score) + favorite odds drifting above 2.5 (1X2)
  • 7–8 total corners (Corners) + last 15 minutes of play (Timer) — the classic race-to-9 radar

Show only matches picked by your strategies

A common workflow is to let strategies identify matches, then use the in-play scanner to monitor those matches in one focused view.

  1. Open the filter window on the Picks column.
  2. Click the Has picks chip — or narrow it to a specific strategy by name.
