1916 Live Matches — Real-Time Scores & How to Get Started
This page explains how to access real-time sports match scores on the 1916 platform, the types of sports supported, the difference between Live Matches and other sports sections, and the steps to get started from your mobile device.
What's Available in the Live Matches Section?
Four key features that set this section apart from a standard schedule view.
Every goal, point, and wicket is recorded and displayed almost instantly. Users do not need to refresh the page manually — the scoreboard updates automatically while the match is in play.
Markets update in real time as the match progresses. Odds shift based on the score, cards, substitutions, and team momentum — giving experienced users the opportunity to make more timely decisions.
A full list of all ongoing matches and those starting within the next few hours is available in a single view. Users can filter by sport to focus on the league or series they're interested in.
Mark a match as a favourite and receive push notifications from the 1916 Android app when it kicks off or when key events occur, such as goals or substitutions.
Live Matches vs Other Sports Sections — What's the Difference?
Many new users are unsure about the differences between the various sports sections on the 1916 platform. This quick-reference table breaks down each section.
| Section | Main Focus | Update | Suitable For |
|---|---|---|---|
| Live Matches | Real-time scores across all sports | Ongoing throughout the match | Active users, live match followers |
| Cricket | Cricket matches & markets only | By draw session or innings | Test, ODI, T20 cricket fans |
| E-Sports | Digital gaming league | By tournament schedule | Mobile Legends, Dota 2 fans |
| Upcoming Schedule | Matches yet to start | Static, updated daily | Pre-match planning |
Which Sports Are Supported in the Live View?
The Live Match section at 1916 covers the most popular sports in Malaysia and Asia. Football takes centre stage with coverage of the English Premier League, Spanish La Liga, German Bundesliga, Malaysia Super League, and major Asian leagues. Scores are updated every minute and include stats such as possession, shots on goal, and cards.
Badminton holds a special place given its popularity in Malaysia. Matches from the BWF World Championships, the Superseries circuit and the Thomas & Uber Cup are fully supported. Users can follow the current set, service and score in real time.
Cricket is also listed in the live section for international T20 and ODI matches, with over-by-over updates. Beyond these three sports, others such as rugby, tennis and basketball are available in line with the international schedule.
All these sports are accessible from a single filterable view — no need to navigate between separate sections to follow matches from different sports at the same time.
How to Read In-Play Odds — A Quick Example
In-play odds shift according to live match conditions. Here's a straightforward example to help you understand how to read them.
Neutral Example: Football (Minute 55)
Team A leads Team B 1–0. Current odds:
- Team A wins: 1.45 (favourite, lower odds)
- Draw: 3.80 (moderate odds)
- Team B wins: 6.20 (lower probability, higher odds)
If you place RM 10 on Team A and they win, the return is calculated as RM 10 × 1.45 = RM 14.50. This is a neutral example to help you understand the concept of odds only.
Odds Types & How They're Calculated
| Odds Type | Format | How to Read |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 1.85, 3.40 | Stake × odds = gross return |
| Fraction | 4/5, 5/2 | Profit per unit staked |
| Americas | -120, +250 | Negative = favourite, positive = longshot |
| Asian Handicap | -0.5, +1.5 | Point spread/handicap for a team |

What You Need to Know About Payments
Account Security & Match Integrity — What You Need to Know
All data transmitted between your device and the 1916 platform servers is protected with SSL (Secure Socket Layer) encryption — the same industry-standard technology used by online banks. This means your personal information, passwords and transaction details cannot be read by any third party during transmission.
For added security, the platform recommends enabling two-factor authentication (2FA) via your registered phone number. Any login attempt from a new device will require an OTP code sent by SMS, keeping your account secure even if your password is compromised.
On the fairness side, scores and match results in the Live Match section are sourced from independent third-party sports data providers. Odds markets are calculated based on live statistical data, not generated randomly. This differs from casino games that use a random number generator (RNG) — in live sports, outcomes are determined by what actually happens on the field.
If you would like to learn more about how your data is managed, please refer to Privacy Policy page which explains the platform's user data management policy in detail.
