Odds API by market / MLS
MLS Total Cards API
Live total_cards odds across every book that posts it, in one REST call — and, unlike any other odds API, every one of those outcomes settled against the official result once play ends.
No credit card. 1,000 requests / day on the free tier.
What MLS total cards is
Over/Under on cards shown in the match. A team-level market rather than a player one.
How we settle it. Graded against yellow plus red cards for both teams in the match statistics.
Every number on this page is measured against the live API, never copied from a spec sheet. Last measured 16 August 2026.
Books posting MLS total cards
Measured live, not listed from a spec. Coverage moves — a book that has not put its board up yet will not appear until it does, which is exactly what this list is for.
Line shopping across all of them is one request — every book arrives in the same bookmakers array, not one call per book. Add ?bookmakers= to narrow it, or use /best-line for the best price per line already ranked.
Recently settled MLS total cards outcomes
These are real rows out of the API, not an illustration. Each one was a price on a board before the event and carries the actual figure it was graded against afterwards. No other odds API returns that last column — they stop at the price.
38 total cards outcomes settled in the last 4 days across 2 books. The 12 most recent:
| Bet | Actual | Result |
|---|---|---|
| Over 4.5 | 7.0 | won |
| Under 4.5 | 7.0 | lost |
| Over 4.5 | 7.0 | won |
| Under 4.5 | 7.0 | lost |
| Over 5.5 | 4.0 | lost |

| Under 4.5 | 6.0 | lost |

Over/Under split, last 4 days
The Over won 21.1% of 19 decided total cards lines (4 over, 15 under). Computed from the settled rows themselves, scoped to MLS only.
Read off 19 Over legs out of 38 settled outcomes on this market. The rest are Unders and milestone legs (“1+”, “2+”) that some books price here too, and a threshold rung is not an Over.
A few days of one market describes a few days — it is not an edge. Pull the full history through /exports/resolved-props for a sample worth modelling on.
Live response
Captured from the real endpoint on Portland Timbers @ Chicago Fire, trimmed to one book and three outcomes so the shape stays readable. The full response carries every book and every line, alternates included, in the same call.

}The response shape is the-odds-api compatible — events, bookmakers, markets, outcomes — so migrating is usually a base URL change.
